love Mary Oliver! no time to fuss over “demure” or “respectable” ! thanks – this made me smile – wryly, and with the satisfaction of having shed those desires.
". . .and the world cannot be discovered by a journey of miles, no matter how long, but only by a spiritual journey, a journey of one inch, very arduous and humbling and JOYFUL, by which we arrive at the ground at our own feet, and learn to be at home."
Wendell Berry
