Now and then, I slide one on to the thin leather cord I wear every day with the same pendant at the bottom. The standard is accompanied that day, and maybe that week... why and how do I sense when to do that? I tend to believe in that beckoning from the mystical beyond....Joan of Arc needing a friend, Mary Magdalene wanting to talk and listen, John XXIII wanting to inspire. <BR/><BR/>Having them so close to me is another, albeit removed, way of sitting with them. Communion, communication, community...giving and receiving in return...<BR/><BR/>be well...Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13564606268367781659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6624495780966204366.post-46362611434548569012008-06-26T07:38:00.000-04:002008-06-26T07:38:00.000-04:00HORATIO O day and night, but this is wondrous stra...<EM>HORATIO <BR/>O day and night, but this is wondrous strange!<BR/><BR/>HAMLET <BR/>And therefore as a stranger give it welcome.<BR/>There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,<BR/>Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.</EM><BR/><BR/>Thanks, friends, for a reason to remember the wisdom of Mr. Shakespeare this summer's morning.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17169893443626130840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6624495780966204366.post-36631884240303879382008-06-25T20:50:00.000-04:002008-06-25T20:50:00.000-04:00Indeed, on occasion, the stone cry out.

I also believe that you did not end at Max Jacob's tomb, "by accident", Donald. He drew you there, I think, as much out of his need as yours, I would suspect. How wonderful to have this "older brother" in your life!<BR/><BR/>Be well, friend!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
