Last Tuesday evening, around 7 oclock, I walked the block from the rectory to the library. I admired the variety of spring flowers in bloom, as I pulled my jacket collar around my neck to keep out the falling snow.
Life requires keeping a foot in two different places.
Those in the arts lose themselves in their work, whether clay, water colors, or music, but always know the way home each day. And so it goes for each of us. Daily we interact with clients and friends, but we are committed to the people we love. We dutifully carry out agreed upon tasks, but really live for the time we can spend with those we love. Every single day, you and I keep one foot in the arena of what we do, and the other foot in the arena of who we are.
