February 10

It's the end of rather awful work week, so it's nice to be to the weekend.

Today is the feast of St. Scholastica, the twin sister of St. Benedict.  Scholastica founded a women's monastery near Benedict's monastery.  The Rule of Benedict is the basis for much of Western monastic life.  Sr. Joan Chittister, OSB, wrote a wonderful commentary on The Rule and is an amazing teacher for our fragile and fearful times.

Every day we make our souls new again. ~ Joan Chittiser

Each morning we are born again.  What we do today is what matters most. ~ Buddha
