The World is Collapsing Around Our Ears...

Things have just been feeling a little upside-down lately. All around us. It's been frustrating and scary and sad, and I know a lot of people who are holding their breath lately...including us.

I saw this quote a while ago in O Magazine and I thought I would pass it along, because I like it so much and it seems appropriate at this time in our history and at this time of year:

I know
It's hard to be reconciled
not everything is exactly
the way it ought to be

but please turn around
and step into the future
leave memories behind
enter the land of hope

—Zbigniew Herbert, A Life
