Hello, sun in my face. Hello you who made the morning and spread it over the fields.

Watch, now, how I start the day in happiness, in kindness.

~Mary Oliver

where are you now?

inquiry for today~ what is calling for help?

How much better is silence; the coffee cup, the table. How much better to sit by myself like the solitary sea-bird that opens its wings on the stake. Let me sit here for ever with bare things, this coffee cup, this knife, this fork, things in themselves, myself being myself.

~Virginia Woolf
