Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book.

In honor of passing the 1000-follower milestone on Mastodon, Bluesky, and Instagram, I’ve made a donation to the Episcopal Relief & Development Middle East Fund, supporting relief efforts in the Diocese of Jerusalem and the emergency services of Al Ahli Hospital in Gaza, St Luke Hospital in Nablus, and Penmen Clinic in Jenin.

Usually when I come to this coffeehouse I see at least one person reading the Bible. This morning I see people reading Thus Spoke Zarathustra by Friedrich Nietzsche, The Stranger by Albert Camus, and The Courage to Be by Paul Tillich (!). The coffeehouse existentialists give me hope for humanity.

I’ve lost my GHOSTS ARE REAL cap. The last place I remember wearing it was at the Plaza Theatre in Atlanta (and I’ve checked — no one there has found it). The Plaza is known to be haunted, so I’m wondering if poltergeist activity is involved.

My favorite tree. On the trail last Sunday at Sosebee Cove in the North Georgia Mountains. The hiking stick was handmade by my late father.

“All the words that I utter,
And all the words that I write,
Must spread out their wings untiring,
And never rest in their flight,
Till they come where your sad, sad heart is,
And sing to you in the night,
Beyond where the waters are moving,
Storm-darken'd or starry bright.”
~ W.B. Yeats, “Where My Books Go”
