We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand.

When we’re connected to others, we become better people.  [Both quotes come from Pausch’s “The Last Lecture” given on September 18, 2007.]

Randy Pausch (1960-2008) was an American educator and professor of computer science at Carnegie Mellon University.  His life was cut short by pancreatic cancer, but he persevered to share his final lecture a few months before his death.

Innocent Eyes

Under cover of night

Fullest moon, ever bright

 

Another day now waits

Nature’s splendid estate

 

Galaxy’s twinkling stars

Distant markers afar

 

Risen spirit above

Filled with Creator’s love

 

Each distant breath measures

Dreams filling with treasures

 

Scattered glimpse of wonder

Sudden sound of thunder

 

Heartbreak covers landscape

No avenue for escape

 

Yet, horizon brightens

Darkness set to lighten

 

Night sky growing smaller

Brilliant pallet’s colors

 

Clouds bowing to sunrise

Morning’s innocent eyes

Wendell Berry Quotes

When I rise up, let me rise up joyful like a bird.  When I fall, let me fall without regret like a leaf.

The soil is the great connector of lives, the source and destination of all.  It is the healer and restorer and resurrector.

Wendell Berry (born 1934) is an American novelist and poet.  Much of his writing embraces the goodness of protecting our environment and preserving agriculture’s way of life.
