I have just returned after an intense last week of class with my wonderful Fuller cohort in Pasadena. Please forgive me for the extended blog absence. As one of you mentioned, seeing that bloody Harry Potter post each day for the last week has been quite irritating and horrendous. My apologies. I might offer the following condolences:
{alpha} I hope to post each day for the next week, providing I have sufficient internetting to span my Northern journeys.
{beta} These artful words slash prayers:
“For who am I? …Am where my feet take me…
Come unto me, you say. I, even to myself, turn.
O Lord and lover, I come if I can to you down through sleeping and waking and eating and saying goodbye and going away and coming back again. Laboring and laden with endless histories heavy on my back.”

That’s beautiful.
You should send it to me.
You’re beautiful too.
Cari,
I wonder have you ever read Buechner?
