Is this creation to which our bodily life belongs simply to be set aside?
Or does there lie within it the embryo of eternity? There are many who see
God’s creation as of little value and its very loveliness as a sorry thing
one would like to leave as soon as possible—preferably with a good kick! I
am sad about that.
