Thank you for this, Alexander. I felt lost and disconnected on other areas of the site this morning, until I found your message.
Paul: Thank you for this inspiring essay and photographs which resonated deeply with me. Thank you, too, for reminding me about St. Therese of Lisieux.
So much food for reflection in this superbly written piece. Thank you, Eric. i’m trying to find that bedrock which will allow me to be grateful “no matter what.” I’m in awe that you found it as you did.
A truly marvellous piece. I love the occasional reference to neurons, cells, DNA, the stuff we are made of. The science inspires awe. .
Such a thoughtful and beautifully written essay. Thank you, Rose.
This is beautiful, evocative, heartbreaking, consoling. Thank you for writing about your grief and the geography of it. May you continue to find peace and comfort in this place to which you are so closely bonded.
I am so moved and inspired by the letter from Danny, printed on the home page. I’m in awe of the example he sets of being grateful during a 30-year period of incarceration and solitary confinement.

Please know that you have helped me today–if you are able to read this, and I hope you are. I also commend the program called Prisoner Express–such a worthy endeavor and so ...

I also commend the program called Prisoner Express–such a worthy endeavor and so greatly needed in our retributive justice system.
Dear Sage: This piece is so helpful and what I needed to read this morning. Thank you very much. I’m struggling to come to terms with all the mistakes I made over the past 4 years of my life. I had a relatively problem-free ride before then, so having to face the task of incorporating perceived “failure” into my awareness of who I really am has been an ordeal. Forgiving myself does not come easily. It is comforting to know that I am not alone in this, and that th...
Dear Sage: This piece is so helpful and what I needed to read this morning. Thank you very much. I’m struggling to come to terms with all the mistakes I made over the past 4 years of my life. I had a relatively problem-free ride before then, so having to face the task of incorporating perceived “failure” into my awareness of who I really am has been an ordeal. Forgiving myself does not come easily. It is comforting to know that I am not alone in this, and that there is a way to see “problems as opportunity for change.” So grateful to you for this and to all on this forum.
