It's hard to get away, but then I remind myself that the news only usually broadcasts the bad stuff and that truly, as you look around, bad stuff is very much in the minority. All is well...

It reminds me of that poem by Wendell Berry:<br /><br />THE PEACE OF WILD THINGS<br /><br />When despair for the world grows in me<br /><br />and I wake in the night at the least sound<br /><br />in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be,<br /><br />I go and lie down where the wood drake<br /><br />rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.<br /><br />I come into the peace of wild things <br /><br />who do not tax their lives with forethought<br /><br />of grief. I come into the presence of still water.<br /><br />And I feel above me the day-blind stars<br /><br />waiting with their light. For a time<br /><br />I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.<br /><br />— Wendell BerryLesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01221703763145912238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7827229507606524967.post-82428155109445718872011-09-06T08:51:19.110-07:002011-09-06T08:51:19.110-07:00Cheer me ups:
