"Sometimes I experience God like this beautiful nothing," he said. "And it seems then as the whole point of life is just to rest in it. To contemplate it and love it and eventually disappear in it. And then other times it is just the opposite. God feels like a presence that engorges everything. I come out here, and it seems the divine is running rampant. The marsh, the whole of Creation, is some dance God is doing and we're meant to step into it, that's all. Do you know what I mean?"
