sacred journeys

There is advertising everywhere. And I mean everywhere.

As I was driving to an appointment in Hollywood, just a couple of blocks from the Kodak theater — I took some shots of all of the ad’s that are in your face in this city. Many of them, are on the sides of buildings — hundreds of feet across.

Interesting seeing all of this the same day as reading THIS ARTICLE

Here is an excerpt…

“Unfortunately, patience is not held in high regard in American society. We get faster and faster and we become less and less; our speed diminishes us. Talking at length about the contemplative life under American conditions seems just absurd. It seems such a fragile way of life in this culture of massive technology, arrogant leadership, pushing and shoving, insatiable consumerism. Contemplation? Kingfishers and dragonflies? Stones . . . tumbled over roundy wells? It’s so inefficient, so ineffective. Yet Jesus tells us to do it this way.”
