Welcome to the Together by Design photographic website and weblog. Contained herein are the writings and photography, the thoughts and images of Kent and Laurie Anne Runge. We are blessed by your presence and exploration.
The world exists, not for what it means but for what it is.
The purpose of mushrooms is to be mushrooms; wine is in order to be wine: things are precious before they are contributory.
It is a false piety that walks through creation looking only for lessons which can be applied somewhere else.
To be sure, God remains the greatest good; but, for all that, the world is still good in itself.
Indeed, since He does not need it, its whole reason for being must lie in its own natural goodness; He has no use for it, only delight.
Robert Farrar Capon
