Inexplicable Ways

Humbly building the universe

  • Song of the Builders

    On a summer morning
    I sat down
    on a hillside
    to think about God--
    a worthy pastime
    Near me, I saw
    a single cricket;
    it was moving the grains of the hillside
    this way and that way
    How great was its energy
    how humble its effort
    Let us hope
    it will always be like this
    each of us going on
    in our inexplicable ways
    building the universe.

A few of my favorite posts over the years

Posted by Inexplicable Ways on January 30, 2010

My very first post:

The purpose of this blog–wow, why am I doing this?  I suppose it is because I have benefitted from other mom’s blogs.  They have graciously given me a glimpse into their homes and lives; assuring me that it is normal for a baby not to sleep through the night, that it is ok to sometimes still wear your pj’s at 3pm, and that it is a good sign that your toddler “nurses” inanimate objects–she will be a great nurturer one day. 

So, here goes…I’m offering a gift in kind–a peak into our life in all its fantastic energy.  We are a work in progress. 

And then some favorite posts:
