Light is All Around Me: February 2015

Quote

But this is what I’m finding, in glimpses and flashes: this is it. This is it, in the best possible way.

That thing I’m waiting for, for that adventure, that movie-score-worthy experience unfolding

gracefully. This is it. Normal, daily life ticking by on our streets and sidewalks, in our houses and

apartments, in our beds and at our dinner tables, in our dreams and prayers and fights and

secrets - this pedestrian life is the most precious thing any of us will ever experience.

(A practical poem)

Everybody's got to eat.

Veggies, milk, and bread & meat...

And everyone needs bowls & things,

And then you've got to get them clean.

So...

Load it! Run it! Unload too!

No one has to tell you to.

Do your part and life is sweet

'Cause

Everybody's got to eat.
