This and That

March has been difficult.  We were already down one assistant, when Jil came down with a bad back and Mariusz dreadful allergies due to the high pollen count.  At the end of the day, I am so physically exhausted, I haven't the energy to turn on the computer.  "Better to burn out, than rust out.", somebody said.

One bright spot was the visit my brother, Dave and sister-in-law, Ginny paid during their road trip from Colorado.  They stayed overnight, sharing the evening meal and Morning Prayer.  Their observation, upon leaving, was that L'Arche Harbor House is a very happy community.

More bon mots from Kathy

After dinner each evening, we read something either from Scripture or the writings of Jean Vanier or others, then discuss.  Last night's subject was on forgiveness.  When I said Christ tells us, when hurt, to 'turn the other cheek', and what does that mean?, Kathy replied, "You slap the other cheek!".
