What do I have a GIVENNESS NOW to?

Not to fear beauty.

“A woodpecker with a cry as sharp as a dagger terrifies the lesser birds, while he is himself benevolent and harmless. 

The beautiful kingfisher in dazzling flight rattles like a bird of ill omen. 

So we fear beauty.”  Thomas Merton, Conjectures of a Guilty Bystander

…will I behold what I cannot hold?

I have a GIVENNESS NOW not to fear beauty.
