Quotation
From book on God & hope (2 of 2):
At such moments I tried to elevate myself. I would touch the turban I had made with the remnants of my shirt and I would say aloud, “This is God’s hat!”
I would pat my pants and say aloud, “This is God’s attire!” I would point to Richard Parker and say aloud, “This is God’s cat!”
I would point to the lifeboat and say aloud, “This is God’s ark!”
I would spread my hands wide and say aloud, “These are God’s wide acres!”
I would point at the sky and say aloud, “This is God’s ear!”
And in this way I would remind myself of creation and of my place in it.
