Colorado Summer 2009 by Katie Graf

There is a time for everything. There is a time to be rejected and a time to be accepted; a time to be busy and on the go and a time to slow down and stop.

Today a friend and I traveled to a Pax Christi conference to talk with a group about the 40 Year History of the Nonviolent Resistance to the Military at Marquette University. At the conference our message of To make peace, stop teaching war was accepted, while here in Milwaukee and Marquette it has been rejected or ignored.

Life has become too busy recently so it is a time to slow down and stop. So till Saturday eve in a week, the Diary of the Worm will ‘go fishing.’ A worm going fishing is a paradox, so fits right in with these postings.

Actually I am taking time out for a family gathering. My two brothers and some of their families, from Iowa and Colorado, will be joining my son and his family and my wife and me for a week of relaxing. Besides our annual gathering of the Grape Leave Club and eating stuffed grape leaves, there will be some fishing, at least for my grandchildren and self.

This time out comes at a very busy time in my life, when there is more to do than time to do it. Martin Luther King said that the busier he got the more time he had to take for prayer and reflections. I do not know how much more praying I will do, but family gatherings can be a time of remembering, reflection and some good laughs.

The picture on the side was taken from my niece and goddaughter from Iowa while she was in Colorado this summer. She just sent it tonight. She will be here in Wisconsin next week before going on the road again, this time to Minnesota, I believe. It is great she is taking time out for the family gathering.

When life becomes hectic and too fast and busy what I need is not a faster computer or better cell phone but to stop, enjoy the sunset and take time to ‘go fishing’.

The www.nonviolentcow.org and Diary of a Worm will return Saturday, July 25th and a new and improved way, fish or no fish.
