I can think of no words that resonate for me more deeply than these by the Swedish diplomat and Christian mystic Dag Hammarskjold.  Contemplating these sentiments seems to me a good thing to do as we think back on 2008 and look ahead to 2009.  Blessings to you.–April Moore    

In the point of rest at the center of our being, we
encounter a world where all things are at rest in the
same way.  Then a tree becomes a mystery, a cloud
a revelation, each man a cosmos of whose riches
we can only catch glimpses.  The life of simplicity is
simple, but it opens to us a book in which we
never get beyond the first syllable.
