The high tide pushed the gull feathers into a straight line along several hundred feet of beach.
There was no sign of the body.
Only the inscribed threshold of those delicate feathers on the rocky shore.

The Liturgy is an Old Growth Forest
“The liturgy creates a universe brimming with fruitful spiritual life, and allows the soul to wander about in it at will and to develop itself there.”
–Romano Guardini, The Spirit of the Liturgy
Selling Chips and Enlightenment
My local grocer decided to display severed Buddha heads and Tostitos. Why not?
Walking
Today, I walked from my home in East Vancouver, to Mass at a beautiful Ukrainian Catholic Church off of Cambie Street. I zig zagged northwest until I arrived at a large dome with three crucifixes, each harboring either a seagull or a crow. It was a beautiful, crisp day with much of the New Years snow still holding onto sidewalks and front gardens. The city is a beautiful mix of new and old, wild and manicured, beautiful and ugly. Here are a few pictures from my walk.
