"I walk by faith, not by sight."
Mais les yeux sont aveugles. Il faut chercher avec le couer. (But eyes are blind. You have to look with the heart.)

Everyday is Earth Day if you, "Ear the Art which is earth+heart=love."
How can you sail and explore the ocean and all it has to offer, if you won't leave the sight of the shore!
For Berkeley (normal) vision is a language whereby God tells us about the tangible world. But prior to having experience of the tangible world, the visual language would be as meaningless as an utterly alien language. It would convey no meaning to the sighted mind.
Suppose one who had always continued blind be told by his guide that after he has advanced so many steps he shall come to the brink of a precipice, or be stopped by a wall; must not this to him seem very admirable and surprising? He cannot conceive how it is possible for mortals to frame such predictions as these, which to him would seem as strange and unaccountable as prophesy doth to others. Even they who are blessed with the visive faculty may (though familiarity make it less observed) find therein sufficient cause of admiration.
The desire to see and the desire to ratify what one has seen are desires at odds with one another, if only because they proceed from separate places in the imagination.
The brain gives the heart its sight. The heart gives the brain its vision.
~ Kall
We may run, walk, stumble, drive, or fly, but let us never lose sight of the reason for the journey, or miss a chance to see a rainbow on the way.
Once you have flown, you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been, and there you long to return.
By God, when you see your beauty you will be the idol of yourself.
