Years that ask questions...

Zora Neale Hurston


Today, three quotes from the great author and folklorist Zora Neale Hurston (1891-1960):


"There are years that ask questions and years that answer.”


So very true. The last few years have been the former for me, but the wheel is slowly turning. And for you?


“Here was peace. She pulled in her horizon like a great fish-net. Pulled
it from around the waist of the world and draped it over her shoulder.
So much of life in its meshes! She called in her soul to come and see.”


So very beautiful. Like an Edmund Dulac illustration in words.


"I want a busy life, a just mind, and a timely death."


I've certainly got the first at the moment; I'm working on the second. The third is out of my hands so I'll get to work and let the Mystery be....
