Just some thoughts...

Every day, as I write Poetiquejustis, I pray it will be a blessing to someone.
Today, I hope it is you.

The Number of Days

 

How we spend our days 
is of course how we spend our lives
Annie Dillard

                                                                         Time is a gift


Not to be spent on the  trivial and the contrived
Those meaningless projects whose only purpose is self-perpetuation.

The inconsequential


  that never reaches for that which truly matters

To quote Alice:

Alice: But I don't want to go among mad people.  
The Cat: Oh, you can't help that. We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.
Alice: How do you know I'm mad?
The Cat: You must be. Or you wouldn't have come here.

That is a real possibility
and that's poetiquejustis
 Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90:12
