Sometimes hidden from me
in daily custom and in trust,
so that I live by you unaware
as by the beating of my heart,Suddenly you flare in my sight,
a wild rose blooming at the edge
of thicket, grace and light
where yesterday was only shade,and once again I am blessed, choosing
again what I chose before.Speaker: Wendell BerrySource: bird by birdPosted: 16 Aug 2009 at 12:44 PMComments: None... Be the first to comment! -
We begin each day where we left off the previous day. The principle is immutable. We cannot begin a journey from where we are not or from where we wish we were. ALL JOURNEYS MUST BEGIN FROM WHERE WE ARE; all that we learn is based upon what we already know; all that we can do will be the result of what we have previously done.

I think [Science is] the way of arriving at truth about the universe because, taken at its most general sense, science is disciplined inquiry. It’s an inquiry that formulates its questions carefully, and which tests them – and it does so in a way that is public and repeatable – which submits itself to review by other people (i.e. – challenge), and which is very open-minded; it’s prepared to accept that it may not arrive at answers but, if it does arrive at answers, those answers might generate new questions. But it’s prepared to put up with those. There’s something very special about the scientific mindset, which is that it is prepared to live with open-endedness.
