Today I learned that the beloved and wonderful poet Mary Oliver died yesterday. I was sad that such a luminous spirit had passed, and yet...I was suffused with thankfulness that such a luminous spirit had LIVED, and shared her gifts with us! Halleluljah! I read this great thing that she wrote: "Teach the children We don't matter so much, but the children do. Give them the fields and woods and the possibility of th world salvaged from the lords of profit" And then she said, "Attention is the beginning of devotion".
