Compline

It has been a busy day. I am preparing for my Aunt Jenny's visit
tomorrow night. She is my only living member of my mother's family. She
is 80 and this is her first visit in many years. I am excited about her
visit.

Just completed mowing and am sitting on my back patio. It is compline
time. The evening time is quiet. I am always reminded of the Abbey of
Gethsemani and Father Matthew Kelty's evening talks after compline.
Memory is what God shares with me tonight. Good memories. A sharing of
God's word through others. A night of stillness and silence is what
compline reminds me of.
