This past weekend, I happened to reread
innerslytherin's Regions of Kindness, which features stanzas from Naomi Shihab Nye's poem "Kindess" as its epigraphs.
On Monday, a friend emailed a copy of the same poem after hearing it at church the morning before, and one of the other recipients responded with Nye's The Art of Disappearing, which ends with:
You will never catch up.
Walk around feeling like a leaf. Know you could tumble any second. Then decide what to do with your time.
Onwards.
