"I have decided to find myself a home in the mountains, somewhere high up where one learns to live peacefully in the cold and the silence. It's said that in such a place certain revelations may be discovered. That what the spirit reaches for may be eventually felt, if not exactly understood. Slowly, no doubt. I'm not talking about a vacation.
Of course at the same time I mean to stay exactly where I am.
Are you following me?"
~Mary Oliver~
from her book of poems,
"A Thousand Mornings"
Mary Oliver is one of my favorite poets, maybe my all time favorite.
