Daily Reflections (Meditations) on the Scriptures from the Roman Catholic Lectionary.
No full textWhen I began meditating on today's passage from Matthew, I got depressed thinking about dreadful photos from Iraq, scandals in the Church, etc. If such things are the "fruit" by which we will be judged, we are in sad shape. What could I offer besides an additional, unnecessary dose of depression?|The answer came on my morning walk: Bob Reilly, my recently deceased friend and role model. Bob was an Omaha public relations professional and professor, the author of more than a dozen books, a World War II veteran, a proud Catholic with 10 children, and an expert on Ireland. His lifetime of kindness culminated in caring for his beloved wife, Jean, a victim of Alzheimer's Disease. While few of us are blessed with Bob's talents, we can all emulate his concern for others.|Bob's legacy is less in his wonderful writing than in the numerous people he touched. I marveled at the way this nationally distinguished author donated precious time to local writers who might never publish a word. He helped numerous struggling authors including me through the difficult process of publishing a first book. He always seemed to have all the time in the world for whoever was intruding on his overbooked life. |When I became a professor, I consciously tried to emulate Bob. Numerous students frequently spoke with something akin to reverence of the impact of his attention and advice. He was a teacher who modeled what he taught. He exemplified the service to others that we see in the best Christians _ not people who make headlines but those who teach first graders to read, empty bedpans with a smile, wipe noses, do tax returns for the elderly, serve dinner at soup kitchens etc.|I read one time that the answer to choking on bad news is to become "good news" to others. This is how we can counteract the headlines that make us ashamed. We can all try to produce "good fruit" as Bob did
Blue Window: Poems
No full textBy Ann Fisher-Wirth Archer Books (Paperback, $14.00, ISBN: 1931122156, 8/2003) “In that shadowy time before sorrow…” the title poem of Ann Fisher-Wirth’s Blue Window begins, invoking a young girl’s world of befores: before sexual and political awareness; before loss, grief, and guilt; before deaths in the neighborhood and the family. Fisher-Wirth continues tracing a series of journeys begun at that time. An Army brat and lifelong traveler who grew up in California and now lives in Mississippi; daughter, lover, wife, and mother; environmentalist, literature professor, and student of yoga and Reiki, Ann Fisher-Wirth writes out of the full range of her experience. Grounded in the body and the earth, Blue Window mourns and celebrates what it is to be alive. “Many American poets have written what gets called ‘the autobiographical lyric.’ Very few poets have written it with such fierce and stinging accuracy. [Ann Fisher-Wirth] is, stylistically, a realist and a modernist. Like William Carlos Williams … she can be a little headlong, perhaps a little ruthless, and that quality gives this book, which also has the virtues of tenderness and attentiveness, its steel and its nerve.” —Robert Hass, former U.S. poet laureate, author, most recently, of the collection Sun Under Wood “Sweet, rank, precise, unafraid of either deep pain or deep joy, these poems remind me of horses in a pasture, always aware of their power and grace, even in repose, and always, completely natural. It is not just the poet who is acutely alive, in this work, but, somehow, the poems themselves.” —Rick Bass, Author, The Hermit’s Story: Stories, The Roadless Yaak, and others. Ann Fisher-Wirth lives in Oxford, Mississippi, where she teaches poetry and environmental literature at the University of Mississippi. She is the author of William Carlos Williams and Autobiography: The Woods of His Own Nature and of numerous essays on American literature, and a Fulbright Scholar who in 2002-2003 held the Chair of American Studies at Uppsala University, Sweden. She and her husband Peter Wirth have five children.https://egrove.olemiss.edu/mwp_books/1048/thumbnail.jp

Daily Reflections (Meditations) on the Scriptures from the Roman Catholic Lectionary.
No full text"For a thousand years in your sight are as yesterday, now that it is past, or as a watch of the night."||Last spring my husband and I spent several days marveling at the ruins of ancient Greece. From our Athens hotel room, we had a perfect view of the Parthenon lighted up at night just like the shots during the Olympics. Awesome!||Today's readings, especially the psalm, speak to this experience. They remind us of how small and transitory even the most astonishing works of man are compared with the work of God and eternity.||Before going to Greece, I read up on its history, geography and mythology because I had only dim memories from high school history, especially about Delphi, once the region's spiritual center. Today its impressive piles of stones and fragments of buildings are reminders of long-gone power and influence. Tourists listen to lectures to understand Delphi's significance. Then they head back to the souvenir shops and the street life of Athens.||In God's eyes, what happened in ancient Greece is "as yesterday" just like the achievements of our own time will soon be. Human power and glory are as mythical in the long term as the advice the Oracle at Delphi dispensed!||So what's important? What kind of legacy counts? I think of my friend, the late Bob Reilly , an outstanding author of many books, but an even more outstanding teacher and human being. At his packed wake, people spoke of his books but that wasn't why they came. Bob had touched every one of us with his kindness, mentoring and warmth. He patiently guided me through writing my first book. His wisdom and encouragement were invaluable.||I'll take a legacy of kindness like Bob's over a pile of stones any day. So, I think, will the Lord
