My work in the garden inside the sunroom was too brief today to get myself grounded, as was the absence of reading and reflection time. I am still flying high on the news of the The Milwaukee Homicide Report last night and still wondering why some emails last night about the report did not get to the persons I sent them to and some I did not email, got it. Who really knows the ways of the computer? I did learn from Tegan of Emergency Digital today a few ways of proceeding with wiki web pages. So all was not wasted but it was a so-so day of being true to the way.

However, tomorrow is Sunday, a day of rest and from what I hear the sun will be back. So maybe tomorrow I can do more in the sunroom in terms of cleaning and planting. With temperatures in the room these days, with just sun and air consistently around 60 degrees there are no excuses not to start using the space to grow. The room is 8 X 10 X 10, about 89 sq. ft. or 800 cubic feet. There are plenty of ways to maximize this growing space and grow.

In all of life there is a way. The early Christians did not call themselves Christians but followers of the Way, in this case the Way of Jesus. In this world we all must find our way. For me, clutter and the noise of every day life, like an overgrown garden, gets in my way. I can make a statement or ask a question and keep on talking not giving the other person a chance to respond. I need pauses of silence in the ways I choose. My garden of the soul needs more silent empty spots, perhaps more pockets of air.
