Geese appear high over us,

pass, and the sky closes. Abandon,

as in love or sleep, holds

them to their way, clear,

in the ancient faith: what we need

is here. And we pray, not

for new earth or heaven, but to be

quiet in heart, and in eye

clear. What we need is here.

~Wendell Berry

what does not need to be known?

inquiry for today~ may you feel a simpler way….

consider love….

Finding out what connects us, reveling in our differences;

this is the process that brings us closer,

that gives us a world of shared values,

of meaningful community.

~Bell Hooks
