There is something morally repulsive about modern activist theories which deny contemplation and recognize nothing but struggle. For them not a single moment has value in itself, but is only a means for what follows.
-Nicolas Berdyaev
I suspect that Berdyaev was addressing the Bolshevik problem - the Communists with their incessant thesis and antithesis ... but I can't help feeling that this applies more generally to (Christian) life nowadays.

Yes... I so often feel that we need to slow down and live WHERE WE ARE.
A moment, a life... has value in itself - because God values it!
