My morning commute this week; with some slight changes this has been my usual route more than 20 years ago. I used to live a few blocks from this place, and the seminary is to the right from this corner, and then this quote from Mary Oliver as only she could ever express: “What is one to do with such moments, such memories, but cherish them? Who knows what is beyond the known? And if you think that any day the secret of light might come, would you not keep the house of your mind ready? Would you not cleanse your study of all that is cheap, or trivial? Would you not live in continual hope, and pleasure, and excitement?”
