Never once in my life did I ask God for success or wisdom or power or fame. I asked for wonder, and he gave it to me. -Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel

The short list of things that opened my eyes a littler wider this week…

• Psalm 46
• Getting reacquainted with The Smiths. Every. Single. Song. Kills.
• Relatedly, watching and listening to Noel Gallagher talking about the Smiths (warning NSFW language).
• Javier Bardem. This man can act! Wow. Watched Biutiful. It’s exquisitely painful, but his acting is a masterpiece.
• “Doing The Work.”
• Two + hours of silence. No radio, no TV, no speaking.
• Anticipating my personal silent retreat next week.
• Getting to hear hopes and dreams from some good friends this week

What about you?
