Last night over dinner there was opportunity to tell friends that they are part of the gift that came from my early college failure, It's an illustration of author Jon Fosse's light shining out of darkness, It's fascinating to reflect, i.e., connect the dots, from the perspective of age.
When one begins to look for the light in darkness it can be found in many places. Sometimes it's expressed in different language. An example is in the book I'm reading where it's said like this "the blessing is next to the wound." The author suggests it's a familiar saying but it is new to me. Light out of darkness, blessings out of failure, the blessing is next to the wound...and connecting these dots is done in retrospect.
Takk for alt,

We're pictured with my parents on the day I graduated from college.
