The People Are A Temple

And souls are candles, each lighting the other.
I read this short poem by Gennady Aygi, a Russian poet, in a class where I had hoped to build substantial relationships with my classmates as we discussed faith through the lens of poetry, and vice versa. Surprisingly, I’ve been building those relationships even more in my introductory Chinese class, in between our bad third tones and character-related short-term memory loss.
