When reading Heidegger I was reminded of the heart of honors, which is seeking the truth of things in love. His portrait of the poet tracking the fugitive gods through destitution so beautifully embodies this goal. In a time where we are living in a crumbling world where everything we have held firm to as a people seems to be falling through, and all seems to be falling into destitution, it is comforting to see the ray of light that is the poet tracking the traces of the holy. I was also reminded of the honors motto, only what is won from the darkness shall stand. Heidegger mentioned that the abyss must be experienced and endured. One must encounter and walk through these times, but bravely reach into the abyss to seek the truth of things.
