Do not read, as children do,
to enjoy themselves
or, as the ambitious do,
to educate themselves.
No, read to live.

“…many remain at the foot of the mount
who could ascend to the top…
I repeat and ask that you always have courageous thoughts.
As a result of them,
God will give you grace for courageous deeds.”
– Teresa of Avila

More”Winter on Cape Cod”ongoing collection
Here’s a new addition to my collection, “Feet Across the World.” The image was made after a snowstorm we had last week on Cape Cod.
I’m having trouble naming it, though, because…yes, the black boots are my feet, but whose other feet are those running across the freshly fallen snow?
I thought it might be my old friend Pepito, the squirrel who lived in my attic in Houston and refused to leave. I know he was in love with me. So perhaps he stowed away in my car and followed me to Massachusetts?
I do miss him…but I hope it’s not him because he would be missing some feet.
So…who is it?! Let me know.

And so
at the end of this day
I can only be
in Stillness.
Feeling deeply
the Unspeakable.
