Contemplative Living

From Kathleen Norris “The Cloister Walk”:

It is the aim of contemplative living, at least in the Christian mode, that you learn to recognize a blessing when you see one, and are able to respond to it with words that God has given you. YES, in response to that wildly colorful yet peaceful sky, YES, I could say back to God, with a line from Psalm 65: “The lands of sunrise and sunset you fill with joy.”

Buried Treasure?

There is some sort of concrete structure underground in our back yard. It doesn’t appear to an old septic tank. It is impeding the grass so I have begun break it up and fill in. I am hopeful that it was used as vault and there are treasures to be found.
