Our deepest calling is to grow into our own authentic selfhood, whether or not it conforms to some image of who we ought to be.

A weird week

A few days ago a friend at my house and I were reading our horoscopes, just for fun, from a magazine supplement that comes in with the Sunday paper.  I don't really believe in all that stuff and neither does he.  That being said the planets or stars or whatever certainly seemed to be converging into a crazy heap this week.  Maybe its the spring weather- making everyone a bit cagey.  Simply stated it was weird.  I even had this whole out of body experience... at least thats the only way I can think to explain some of my actions.  I don't really feel like rehashing it all here.  Not something that needs to be remembered necessarily though I know myself well enough to know I will.  It is over now.  Things happened and next week we begin anew.  In honor of the crazy week I've had and of "the Bard" who we started things off with, here's a quote from A Midsummer's Night Dream.


If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended,
That you have but slumber'd here
While these visions did appear.
And this weak and idle theme,
No more yielding but a dream,
Gentles, do not reprehend:
if you pardon, we will mend:
And, as I am an honest Puck,
If we have unearned luck
Now to 'scape the serpent's tongue,
We will make amends ere long;
Else the Puck a liar call;
So, good night unto you all.
Give me your hands, if we be friends,
And Robin shall restore amends.

Just, Margaret
