Solas 2010: art, faith and justice

A superb weekend at the first Solas festival this weekend. Solas ‘aims to celebrate, explore and develop connections between art, faith and justice within and beyond Scotland’

Great music, stimulating talks, great conversations, amazing weather.  Much food for thought too and I will share more on this.

For today, here is a poem shared by one of the speakers.

The Place Where We Are Rightby Yehuda Amichai From the place where we are right Flowers will never grow In the spring. The place where we are right Is hard and trampled Like a yard. But doubts and loves Dig up the world Like a mole, a plow. And a whisper will be heard in the place Where the ruined House once stood.
