Love

Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy.
That is not our business and, in fact, it is nobody's business.
What we are asked to do is to love, and this love itself will render both ourselves and our neighbors worthy if anything can.

Thomas Merton (1915 - 1968)

The Organizer

This is what Owen does in his free time Up North if he's not swimming, boating, fishing, kicking the soccer ball, eating or sleeping.  

He pulls out all of the boxes inside his tackle box and stares at the contents.

He rearranges some and puts others back in the same place.

He talks about going shopping for more lures and watches intently as Papa Wenzel pulls out items from his own tackle box.

He sighs contentedly as he puts everything back in his tacklebox.  This is the good life.  My boy is happiest with the simple things.
