Frig Quotes


These days I'm finding that my frig has more things on the outside of it than anywhere else.  Don't get me wrong...there are a few things inside but eating in the Refectory cuts down on the need to cook for myself.  With all the stuff I magnetize to it (to remind me of all the stuff I need to remember) I rarely look at it.  Perhaps it's just for the atmosphere. The feeling you get when you convince yourself think that you're actually organized can be quite euphoric.  I am not quite sure why, but today I actually glanced above the photo and read a quotation from Thomas Merton that a friend sent me years ago.  It reads:

          You do not need to know precisely what is
          happening or exactly where it is all going.


          What you need is to recognize the challenges and
          opportunities offered by the present moment and
          to embrace them with courage, faith, and hope.


Enough said.

    Pat, Ah yes one day at a time...hope you continue to bask in that truth. Things are proceeding well but the temps are staying in the low 40's for much too long...I've heard this is still warm...I worry. Blessings...rusty
