Navigating Downtown

Build of your imaginings a bower in 
 the wilderness ere you build a house
 within the city walls.
For even as you have home-comings
 in your twilight, so has the wanderer
 in you, the ever distant and alone.
Your house is your larger body.
It grows in the sun and sleeps in the
 stillness of the night; and it is not
 dreamless. Does not your house
 dream? and dreaming, leave the city
 for a grove or hill-top?

from The Prophet, by Kahlil Gibran


A break in the monotony today when we headed back into the city for an appointment. All seems to be going well, so perhaps we will venture out again tomorrow.
