From Batman Begins:
Alfred Pennyworth: Why do we fall sir? So we might learn to pick ourselves up
Bruce Wayne: You still haven’t given up on me?
Alfred Pennyworth: Never
In my efforts at self-care, I have fallen often.
I have learned well how to pick my self up.
Family and friends, long-time and new, have never given up on me.
Today, as the secular new year dawns, I make a new beginning. Again.
As in the recent past, I will attempt to post results on Steps along the Trail. You are welcome to follow. Or not.
See you along the Trail.
I fell flat n was reluctant to get up!
Struggling n gasping
If only I can pick myself up as quickly as I fall
I would be well,
But I am still nursing bruises n picking out the grains.
From Wendell Berry…”Practice Resurrection.”
