Everyone longs for love's tense joys and red delights.
Jane Kenyon

Be a good steward of your gifts. Protect your time. Feed your inner life. Avoid too much noise. Read good books, have good sentences in your ears. Be by yourself as often as you can. Walk. Take the phone off the hook. Work regular hours.

Let it come, as it will, and don't be afraid. God does not leave us comfortless, so let evening come.
