☀️It is not joy that makes us grateful. . . it is gratitude that makes us joyful. 🍁 🦃 #happythanksgivingyall (at Riverside, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqfoWXOH3Od/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=75byaw5nshx7

☀️ “The key to our [spiritual] transformation is the heart, not the reasoning mind, because it is the heart, symbolically speaking, that controls the will. Art, at its best, works below and above the level of rationalities. The image, whether painted, sculpted, or presented in the written word, holds the power to alter a man’s destiny.” ~R.Dreher, How Dante Can Save Your Life #loveliterature #loveart #lovealot https://www.instagram.com/p/BqT4SmYHaLj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xwlpn9jv0pmh

Inspired ☀️ “I recently spoke at a university where a student told me that it was such a shame that Nigerian men were physical abusers like the father character in my novel. I told him that I had just read a novel called ‘American Psycho’- and that it was such a shame that young Americans were serial murderers. ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ Now, obviously, I said this in a fit of mild irritation. But it would never have occurred to me to think that just because I had read a novel in which a character was a serial killer that he was somehow representative of all Americans. This is not because I am a better person than that student, but because of America's cultural and economic power, I had many stories of America. I had read Tyler and Updike and Steinbeck and Gaitskill. I did not have a single story of America. ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ Stories matter. Many stories matter. Stories have been used to dispossess and to malign, but stories can also be used to empower and to humanize. Stories can break the dignity of a people, but stories can also repair that broken dignity. ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ I would like to end with this thought: That when we reject the single story, when we realize that there is never a single story about any place, we regain a kind of paradise.” #halfofayellowsun ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ “...A new writer endowed with the gift of ancient storytellers.” #chinuaachebe https://www.instagram.com/p/BqGNugUnT1a/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1lhh8ln5czdre
