The Real Work  
It may be that when we no longer know what to do,
we have come to our real work.

And that when we no longer know which way to go,
we have come to our real journey.

The mind that is not baffled is not employed.

The impeded stream is the one that sings.

–Wendell Berry

Nice to meet you, too! Hope your first week is going well, and see you on Tuesday (if you're going to the same one). :)
