The Strongest Bridge:


What's the strongest bridge in the world? I read a blog post today that argued the strongest bridge in the world was hope. It's an intriguing idea, but I don't think it's true. Hope is fragile. You try to cross a bridge made of hope and it will disappear in the winds of doubt.

The strongest bridge is faith. Henry Miller claimed that faith is like a supporting arch in the back of every creation. He thought enthusiasm was nothing, because it comes and goes. Hope is the same. If you have ever done creative work, you know how agonizing the doubts can be.

If only I had more faith.

    I don't remember. That photo was created more than four years ago.
