bigger is better, but small is beautiful. irresistible, contrite, and meek, the cute begin revolutions with every glance. their vision extends beyond the visible to the valuable. rather than obsessing over velocity and mass, over where things are going, the cute are here and now, searching for connection. the touch, the caress, the embrace - these are the cute reactions to high technology. high tech makes us want high touch, a healing of the body-soul rather than a narrow aspect.
spiritual dogmas reduce the irreducible; let's return to direct experience as a revelation of truth. often the soul of God-believers lives like a bird in the cage of the physical body. only if used in worship are physical things valued. the spiritual is high, the material is low. we assume that incarnation only occurs within categories, within things that can be organized. but His Spirit comes through touch, which can be described but not organized. sloppy and fractal, touch as a channel breaks categories. the Spirit floods these channels of perception with layers of colors wrapped around truth. how are we to learn from static systems? i want a person, i want a voice, i want communication.
wrapped in conversation, one entity influences another which influences another, appropriating both ideas and energy. the cute share. gifts abound and pass hand to hand. the Spirit speaking gives the Body utterance. this is flow. one day adding to another, one thought building on another, building a body that is a house. here, in the foyer, organic eddies of content break through horizons.
how lovely are the feet of those who bring the good news. how lovely the faces that smile through barriers. how lovely the hands that touch the Kingdom, that hold the dying, that caress the lonely. the cute are a tendril connecting heaven with the earth. and here, in the light of love, the meek will inherit it all.
