Atop this light house I live, tending the workings. I serve the light, the light guides the ships, the ships bring goods, the land and people prosper.

Such a weight on lonely shoulders! If I shirk, it all falls apart.

Or so I think. The ships know their own way, the light I tend is old, a museum, and commerce flows to other ports which feed us.

Grant me grace to let go, Lord.

(Letter #3,432)
