Dennis Vanden Auweele claims, “It is abundance that propels thought [for Desmond], not emptiness.” Desmond argues that being is excessive, “overdetermined.”

   What does Desmond say about being?

   • Desmond argues that being is excessive, “overdetermined.” It is more than we can take in. Being manifests a worth that we did not put there, a worth that can move us to care. The strike of wonder (re)awakens us to this abundance and worth. Perhaps we are struck by a starlit sky or by mote constellations suspended in a window’s light.
