Quote of the Day (and Musings on a Terrible Work Week)
“‘I don’t know what you mean by your way,’ said the Queen: “all the ways about here belong to me… ‘Curtsey while you’re thinking what to say. It saves time.'” Lewis Carroll, Through the Looking Glass
It’s been one of those weeks when I realized that whatever this lesson is that I am supposed to learn, I don’t seem to have learned it very well yet. Best thing I know when having such realizations is to pause, to go for a walk, to eat well, to clean, to draw on the wisdom and affection of friends, to pet the cat, to go out into the garden, to meditate (not necessarily in that order). To be open to changing and growing–painful as it may seem.

An Obituary and a Quote Being Widely Shared
It is extraordinary to think how one man can have had such significance in so many lives. This quote provides valuable insight and perspective:
“I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.” Martin Luther King Jr.
According to one source, the quote is a hoax (though no proof is offered). It is a beautiful quote, whoever penned/said it.
