Amazing Grace

How sweet the sound.



Sufjan Stevens Christmas album




Today is Christmas. I sat alone in a red comfortable chair and finished my leftover meal, made some desert toast and chipped away at a small piece of good chocolate.

Opened the second book in C.S. Lewis' Space Trilogy, Perelandra. This is what I find:

"The distinction between natural and supernatural, in fact, broke down; and when it had done so, one realizes how great a comfort it had been- how it had eased the burden of intolerable strangeness which this universe imposes on us by dividing it into two halves and encouraging the mind never to think of both in the same context. What price we may have paid for this comfort in the way of false security and accepted confusion of thought is another matter."
