the real world

 Back in the world, the real world. Walking on a snowy and windy day. Sticks and branches down along dirt roads. Sound of the snowplow for the first time this year. Wind roaring through the trees, flapping the flag in the front yard, ringing the wind chimes on a neighbor's front porch. Snow stinging cheeks, nose and eyes.

Ours is not the task of fixing the entire world at once, but of stretching out to mend the part of the world that is within our reach.

Clarissa Pinkola Estes
