When I was teaching teenagers, I
gave quick quizzes occasionally, as a way of keeping the kids watchful, and in
these first days of retirement, a learned and high-level teacher called Life
has given me some off-the-cuff quizzes. Here are a few of the questions, with
answers:
· * How do birds sing so beautifully? (They
believe they can.)
· * What’s the meaning of the steadily streaming
cars on the nearby interstate? (Nothing truly stands still, ever.)
· * What good can storms do? (Blow dead thoughts
out and fresh ones in.)
· * Where can I find wisdom? (Here, now, always.)
· * What’s the most perfect moment of all? (This
one.)
I’m
feeling lucky to be learning from such a talented teacher. With all my free
time now, some serious seminars and lectures lie ahead
