The possession of knowledge does not kill the sense of wonder and mystery. There is always more mystery.

There's no way I'll ever understand the whole ocean - but I had to reach out and touch it first. Then I could work on trusting it a bit more each day.

Life's errors cry for the merciful beauty
that can modulate their isolation
into a harmony with the whole.

Larry, I so especially cherish the Lincoln quote. He carried so many burdens, his own illness of depression, the loss of a child, the unwellness and instability of his wife, his responsibilities to a nation, his beliefs, the war, the breakdown of his ideals of union.
He is indeed a beacon! Thank you, his light shines today and I am glad you reminded us.
