“The moment you come to trust chaos, you see God clearly. Chaos is divine order, versus human order. Change is divine order, versus human order. When the chaos becomes safety to you, then you know you’re seeing God clearly.”
—Caroline Myss, *Spiritual Madness: The Necessity of Meeting God in Darkness*
It’s a bit morbid to stop and take pictures of the partial remains of a dead bird, but these were just too lovely to resist. I think it was my fascination with wings more than anything that drew me to take this shot, but I also found it interesting that the bone structure was still intact enough to keep the two wings together. And what became of the rest of the body before the remains of it landed on a busy city sidewalk…?
