RIVERS IN THE DESERT

.




I am about to do a new thing;
now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?
I will make a way in the wilderness
and rivers in the desert.
The wild animals will honor me,
the jackals and the ostriches;
for I give water in the wilderness,
rivers in the desert, to give drink
to my chosen people,
the people whom I formed for myself
so that they might declare my praise.
.
Isaiah 43:19-21
(All images are from the Rio Grande River
in New Mexico.)

INDECISION

.




.
There is no more miserable human being
than one in whom nothing is habitual
but indecision.
.
William James (1842-1910)
American physician, philosopher, and
 psychologist
.
 Evil draws its power from indecision and concern
 for what other people think.    
. 
  Pope Benedict XVI
 
. 
 “Having made the decision, do not revise it
 unless some new fact comes to your knowledge.
 Nothing is so exhausting as indecision, and
 nothing is so futile.”
 .
