“Instructions for living a life.
Pay attention.
Be astonished.
Tell about it.”

“the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own”

“To pay attention, this is our endless and proper work.”

Mary Oliver
“to live in this world

you must be able
to do three things
to love what is mortal;
to hold it

against your bones knowing
your own life depends on it;
and, when the time comes to let it go,
to let it go”
Mary Oliver, New and Selected Poems, Volume One
