The Mysterious

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.  It is the source of all true art and all science." Albert Einstein

It is unclear to what Einstein is referring in the above quote, but in another quote by him, he says that all he wants is to know the mind of God -- so apparently, here too, he is referring to the Divine.  It is said that Einstein took brief cat naps all day and that is was from his dreams that his great inventions and ideas came.  I think that source of mysterious is available to us all.  Through meditation, prayer, sleep and dreams, moments of inspiration -- all of these can bring us brilliant ideas that we have not thought before and can be a great source of creativity.

I took Dwane to decorate a family member's grave in recognition of Memorial Day.  It was a good day.  He seems to move from one perseveration to another, and right now it is what lawn mower I am using at home.  I choose to use a reel mower - for several reasons, and he seems to think I should be using a gas mower.  It is interesting to witness what things hold his attention.  The mind is an interesting thing in all of us.
