Seen
1st grape hyacinth (Muscari racemosum) blooms of spring—from volunteer plants in the yard, no less!
Done
Round trip drive to Detroit to help my brother-in-law take care of untended items in his home after he made a hasty departure for much needed medical attention. I’m feeling the 10 hour road trip ;-)

Quoted
O THOU revered maidservant of God! Thy letter from Los Angeles was received. Thank divine Providence that thou hast been assisted in service and hast been the cause of the promulgation of the oneness of the world of humanity, so that the darkness of differences among men may be dissipated, and the pavilion of the unity of nations may cast its shadow over all regions. Without such unity, rest and comfort, peace and universal reconciliation are unachievable. This illumined century needeth and calleth for its fulfillment. In every century a particular and central theme is, in accordance with the requirements of that century, confirmed by God. In this illumined age that which is confirmed is the oneness of the world of humanity. Every soul who serveth this oneness will undoubtedly be assisted and confirmed.
I hope that in the assemblies thou mayest sing praises with a sweet melody and thus become the cause of joy and gladness to all. 1
