If you want to identify me, ask me not where I live, or what I like to eat, or how I comb my hair,

but ask me what I am living for, in detail,

ask me what I think is keeping me from living fully for the thing I want to live for.

~Thomas Merton

forgetting where the enlivened live…

inquiry for today~ and then the bells ring in, reminding us…..

can I listen a little better?

What will matter is the good we did,

not the good we expected others to do.

~Elizabeth Lesser
