What Tijuana shows is that the world is broken and good things happen. Living in the States, it is easy to think that the world is a good place, and too bad that bad things happen.
To start with a presumption of light
Allows every bad thing to be a torment,
A deviance from the way the world should work.
Keep the entitlement flowing and all will be well.
Until the bad things come, as they will.
To start with a presumption of darkness
Allows every good thing to be a gift.
No entitlement. Sheer grace.
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.
