Songs About the End of Wandering
06.03.2025
Throughout the Lenten season, you can reflect on transience, hope, and gratitude in our church through beautifully calligraphed Japanese poems.
Reflection on the end of our journey should not lead us to sadness or fear, but instead to mindfulness and gratitude for every moment of life.
Awareness of impermanence can give us a glimpse of our preciousness and uniqueness.
And so awaken in us real hope.
„Hope, my soul, hope. You know neither the day nor the hour. Watch attentively, for everything passes quickly, even though your impatience makes doubtful what is certain, and turns a very short time into a long one.“ Pope Francis quotes the Carmelite Teresa of Avila in his message for Lent.
Poems from the collection One Hundred Poems from Ogura prepared by Petra Vitásková – Kaligrafie a Anežka Peroutka
