114. Learn to Live in Loneliness A man must get away now and then to experience loneliness. Only those who learn how to live in loneliness can come to know themselves and life. I go out there and walk and look at the trees and sky. I listen to the sounds of loneliness. I sit on a rock or stump and say to myself, "Who are you, Sandburg? Where have you been, and where are you going?" — Carl Sandburg Thursday, March 28, 13

219. There Is No Rush The theology of progress forces us to act before we are ready. We speak before we know what to say. We respond before we feel the truth of what we know. In the process, we inadvertently create suffering, heaping imprecision upon inaccuracy, until we are all buried under a mountain of misperception. But Sabbath says, Be still. Stop. There is no rush to get to the end, because we are never ﬁnished. Take time to rest, and eat, and drink, and be refreshed. And in the gentle rhythm of that refreshment, listen to the sound the heart makes as it speaks the quiet truth of what is needed. —Wayne Muller Thursday, March 28, 13

257. The Cosmic Dance "When we are alone on a starlit night, when by chance we see the migrating birds in autumn descending on a grove of junipers to rest and eat; when we see children in a moment when they are really children, when we know love in our own hearts; or when, like the Japanese poet, Basho, we hear an old frog land in a quiet pond with a solitary splash--at such times the awakening, the turning inside out of all values, the 'newness,' the emptiness and the purity of vision that make themselves evident, all these provide a glimpse of the cosmic dance. —Thomas Merton Thursday, March 28, 13

263. Gleaning "Winnowing fear, restless, feral winds surge in my mind, shifting directions, gathering force. I mistake it all for chaff—husks of failure and deprecation. But this wind resounds from the ancient world and release has always been gleaned from grains of doubt." —Nancy Compton Williams Thursday, March 28, 13

281. “God is the experience of looking at a tree and saying, ‘Ah!” —Joseph Campbell Thursday, March 28, 13

325. Lessons from an old cat We should not fool ourselves; Death desires only life and this powerful planet continues on despite us. The old cat dies; the Springers charge down the path giddy with freedom. And from the forest trees the birds sing in a new day. Each death forms a blanket cradling life to come; The nurse pine falls as her saplings take root to rise into the sky she has opened. Two toads part open the walk; revealing the bolete and chanterelle that take residence for a single day. A parent dies and is mourned as the grandchild ﬁrst sees light; And before her ﬁrst breathe, those same genes determine her demise. What I see is nothing new but ever so; The rapture of one small planet in a universe of unknowns —Ann DeMarle Thursday, March 28, 13
