To Strip A Man Of All Loyalties

Surely No One Can Be Sure He Has Visited Cienega; People Say To Themselves, Do They Not: 'was It A Vision; Or Have I, Some Time Or Other, Seen Dusk In A Valley Like This?'

When I Meet A New Person, I Am On The Lookout For Signs Of What He Or She Is Loyal To. It Is A Preliminary Clue To The Sense Of Belonging, And Hence Of His Or Her Humanity.

I Am No Theologian. I Am A Layman. I Am Among Those Who Are Preached To, And Who Listen. It Is Not For Me To Preach. I Should Not Willingly Forego Being A Listener, A Man Who Reads The Gospels And Then Listens To What Others Say That Our Lord Meant. But Sometimes A Listener Speaks Out, And Listens To His Own Voice.

Each Of Us Is A Being In Himself And A Being In Society, Each Of Us Needs To Understand Himself And Understand Others, Take Care Of Others And Be Taken Care Of Himself.

Free People Make The Only Milieu Possible In Society For The Full Gift Of One's Self To Church, State, And Family. Free People Enjoy And Sustain And Feel With One Another Because They Live For One Another. The Paths Of Life Are Intermingled Lives.
