I feel caught in a phase of life in which there is not great demands upon me, but always events and people to keep the pace of life quite full and rapid.
But it is good. I am learning to value how others think about things. How they respond to life and what their experience has taught them about living wisely and truly and honestly. Learning to listen to their dreams, their goals, can be very rewarding.
Today I went out to a little gazebo that Mr. Russell kindly allows us students to frequent. I sat there near the zinnias and the bumblebees, and I read an inspiring book and journaled. That was just a delightful and encouraging way to spend a day off.
Tonight I am thinking about my former students in Virginia...if any of you read this, I hope you are having a very good beginning to your school year. =) And that you are reading good books.
Time to go to bed. Tomorrow morning I am picking up a friend at the Erie Train Station...and I'd like to be there in time to watch the train roll in.
Good night!
