Believe in the holy contour of life
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
This is an exhortation to trust the sacred shape of life itself, its curves, rises and falls, as it actually unfolds. The speaker treats ordinary experience as holy, something to have faith in rather than tidy or control. Belief here is directed at life's natural flow instead of any doctrine.
