"And the Thoughts Keep Racing"
Poem of the Day - 4/21/20
Audio Version of Today's Poem
Thoughts run around in my head
As I lay curled up under my comforter
Tired, at least mentally,
But my eyes remain wide open
Even when my eyelids grow heavy
Dreams wait patiently
As I toss and turn in my bed
I just can't seem to shake the insomnia
Will I ever learn how to calm my mind
So that I can drift away to dreamland
And wake up tomorrow
Ready to take on the day?
"I have no idea where I am going; I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself...But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And I hope that I have that desire in all that I am doing. And I know that if I do this, you will lead me by the right road though I may know nothing about it. Therefore will I trust you always..." -Thomas Merton
I have come to fall in love with teaching in Catholic schools. What are YOU in love with?...
