“Life's full of broken
things
Like hearts, homes, and dreams
We all come from something broken.”— “Broken,” composed by Patrick Russell Davis, Margaret Rose Durante (AKA Maggie Rose), and Corey Crowder, from Ms. Rose’s EP The Variety Show, Vol. 1 (2016)
On Sundays, I normally
include a “Spiritual Quote of the Day” on this blog. But last night, while
listening to several country music artists on a PBS station, I heard this song from Maggie Rose, a singer-songwriter I hadn't heard of before.
Like hearts, homes, and dreams
We all come from something broken.”— “Broken,” composed by Patrick Russell Davis, Margaret Rose Durante (AKA Maggie Rose), and Corey Crowder, from Ms. Rose’s EP The Variety Show, Vol. 1 (2016)
It struck me that it is precisely “something broken”—call it original sin or just the
human condition—that has sparked the need for so much religious consolation.
And so, I offer it here,
and hope that anyone reading this finds what will mend anything broken in their
own lives.
