Had we but world enough, and time — 4 Comments

  1. The coldest I experienced in Massachusetts was -20F, but it was only one morning. By and large, the winters there were pretty mild with the big snows, if any, in early spring or late winter.

  2. I’m sure I speak for a lot of your readers when I say “seethe away.” Having said that, I’m off to read your long post. After thanking you in advance. . .

  3. “Let us roll all our strength and all
    Our sweetness up into one ball,
    And tear our pleasures with rough strife
    Through the iron gates of life:
    Thus, though we cannot make our sun
    Stand still, yet we will make him run.”

  4. One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.

    He said, “My son, the battle is between two ‘wolves’ inside us all.

    One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.

    The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.”

    The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: “Which wolf wins?”

    The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.”
