The Grace of the World
“Hello, sun in my face. Hello, you who made the morning and spread it over the fields…Watch, now, how I start the day in happiness, in kindness.” –Mary Oliver
“I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief… For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.” – Wendell Berry
Take Sunday back.
Not doing.
Slow.
Saunter.
Rest, ease.
Enter nature.
Pay attention.
Look broad and deep.
No figuring, fixing.
In the detail of the ordinary.
Abiding.
Beauty emerges.
The grace of the world.
“Fresh air is as good for the mind as for the body. Nature always seems trying to talk to us as if she had some great secret to tell. And so she has.” –John Lubbock
