Naming Things Quotes

Even now, it’s still hard for him to say it. I don’t blame him. It’s an icky word. Why couldn’t whoever was in charge of naming things call cancer ‘sugar’ and sugar, ‘cancer’? People might not eat so much of the stuff then. And it’s so much more pleasant to die of sugar Picture Quote #1

For me, Christianity is not a genre. It’s faith. The Gospel is not a genre either. It’s faith.

Naming things, breaking through taboos and denial is the most dangerous, terrifying, and crucial work. This has to happen in spite of political climates or coercions, in spite of careers being won or lost, in spite of the fear of being criticized, outcast, or disliked. I believe freedom begins with naming things. Humanity is preserved by it Picture Quote #1

I feel happy to be keeping a journal again. I’ve missed it, missed naming things as they appear, missed the half hour when I push all duties aside and savor the experience of being alive in this beautiful place Picture Quote #1
