Since 1998 I've been sending out these reflections first thing each
week--one or more quotes plus my thoughts about the intersections and
contradictions. They're archived here back to 2002, and a new one is
posted every Monday morning. Dialogue is still welcome . . .

Quote #1226 - #ShiningThrough
23 Feb, 2026
SHINING THROUGH
"Because I know so little I grope for more.
If I knew as much as you, I'd be afraid to
try my luck. I'd be stuck on the sticks of
reason, information that comes to naught.
You, who tell me life is useless rubbish,
and you can prove it with a twirl of diagrams,
heavy numbers. I can't concentrate on that.
I search through my dumb old feelings. And
trust and plough into what I'd like to be
true, mysteries, dark, unending, and all the
black night of search and dreaming, always
open, unanswered, shining through."
Jane Mayhall
THE NAME OF THE ROSE
"So, you're wrong about something. You are. You're not going to know for awhile the thing you're wrong about... but you're wrong about something. You might be wrong about a lot of somethings. And maybe we should all be reminding ourselves of that on the daily."

We know so little
and the more we open to what there is still to know
to find
to find out
the more we can learn.
We know so little
and oh how we suffer if we're not willing to
admit that,
own that,
revel in the reality of our ignorance
as much as our knowledge.
We know so little.
And isn't that wonderful?
As long as we have humility
and curiosity,
there's so much still to discover.
