Heschel’s Wonder-3/14/21

Summoned

We do not live in a void. We never suffer from a fear of roaming about in the emptiness of Time. We own the past and are, hence, not afraid of what is to be. We remember where we came from. We were summoned and cannot forget it, winding the clock of eternal history.
