March 31, 2020
The neighbours said they rarely saw the lady but when they did, she was always happy and well-presented. She kept the small garden at the front of the house neat and tidy. But it was clear from inside that it had been years since she had thrown anything out.
A Prayer for the Raw & Ragged by Elizabeth Glass Turner
March 28, 2020
We need your Breath of Life, your Spirit-Wind that slowly fills our lungs with quiet life,
that slows our breathing away from

the warm, still calmness of being.
