Ronald Rolheiser, The Holy Longing: The Search For A Christian Spirituality Quotes
Spirituality is about what we do about the fire inside of us, about how we channel our eros.
Charity is appeased when some rich person gives money to the poor while justice asks why one person can be that rich when so many are poor.
Every choice is a renunciation. Indeed. Every choice is a thousand renunciations. To choose one thing is to turn one's back on many others.
Spirituality is, ultimately, about what we do with that desire. What we do with our longings, both in terms of handling the pain and the hope they bring us, that is our spirituality.
