"The swiftest things are the softest things. A bird is active, because a bird is soft. A stone is helpless, because a stone is hard. The stone must by its own nature go downwards, because hardness is weakness.
The bird can of its nature go upwards, because fragility is force. In perfect force there is a kind of frivolity, an airiness that can maintain itself in the air... Angels can fly because they can take themselves lightly." - G.K. Chesterton
The Force of Fragility
We are a Christian writer's group based in Clearfield County, PA. Our passion is delighting in the glory of God in all His creation. Our goal is to encourage one another in Joy and Creativity. Our hope is to always take ourselves lightly.
