It's like I have forgotten just how BEAUTIFUL the Northwest is. I think I am going through withdraws. I'm so glad that you had a change to go out hiking in such beauty, one more time before you leave.

Love you,
Jen

Quotes

"Perhaps you are beginning to see how essential a part of reading it is to be perplexed and know it. Wonder is the beginning of wisdom in learning from books as well as from nature. If you never ask yourself any questions about the meaning of a passage, you cannot expect the book to give you any insight you do not already possess."

How to Read a Book by Mortimer Adler and Charles Van Doren

"Those best qualified to understand the arts are those who genuinely love them, and who are striving to weave their own lives into a work of art that will attract others to the beauty of truth."

Saving Leonardo by Nancy Pearcey

"By choosing integrity, I become more whole, but wholeness does not mean perfection. It means becoming more real by acknowledging the whole of who I am."

The Courage to Teach by Parker Palmer

"The difference between a beginning teacher and an experienced one is that the beginning teacher asks, 'How am I doing?' and the experienced teacher asks, 'How are the children doing?'"

Educating Esme by Esme Raji Codell

"We must stop setting our sights by the light of each passing ship; instead we must set our course by the starts."

George Marshall

"We need to be really bothered once in a while. How long is it since you were really bothered? About something important, about something real?"
Fahrenheit 451
