Thoreau Quote

There is much to be said about the benefits of a walk in the woods. It can change the way we feel, improve our health, and lifts our spirits. In fact, there’s so much I could say about it, I’m going to cut right through to the heart of the matter with a succinct quote about it by Henry David Thoreau:

“I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees.”

Sunday Thoughts

According to the Bible, Jesus said, “I am in the Father, and the Father is in me.”

Two thousand years later, Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson said, “I am in the universe, and the universe is in me.”

Are we missing something here?

the fox

half dog, half cat

with a smidgen of rat

he’s hard to find

and photograph

we list his crimes

in nursery rhymes

from sour grapes

to fox in sox

he makes us laugh–

that sly ol’ fox

I’m reminded of that riddle of the goose, the fox, and the corn, and in case you haven’t heard it, it goes like this: a farmer has to get a goose, a fox, and a sack of corn across a river, but his boat is so small, he can only transport one at a time. Without leaving the fox alone with the goose, or the goose alone with the corn, how does he do it?
