I must find me a farm to visit! A place to sort out myself.... Back at reality, I realize it may be too late as my elderly (well, more elderly than me) father is moving in with us a week from today! This too is a dream--one I've looked forward for a long time. And actually, I had my time and place back in June. A week at the Abbey of Gethsemane. It's time to return to a few of the resolutions and practices from that rare and restorative week.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08740950362293427086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14874528.post-35459115887918546912016-10-04T23:45:07.908-02:302016-10-04T23:45:07.908-02:30I look towards Poland today and mein gott, talk of...I look towards Poland today and mein gott, talk of backwards go the rights.

I can't imagine what life was like for those women in past centuries who were expected to crank out children continually until they dropped dead in their thirties or forties. Thankfully women now have some choice in the matter.nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10472673041193755894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14874528.post-47864005623907283432016-10-02T12:26:08.430-02:302016-10-02T12:26:08.430-02:30My son and his bride do not want children either a...My son and his bride do not want children either and that does not surprise me.
