Letter 4565
I am awake early, watching the new sun about to shine on new lands.
In my rooms, while outside the world seems to frolic, I turn inward and inward.
Where has there been progress? Where not? How far is left to go, as I try to grow more like whom you would have me be?
❖
My neighbor once remarked how dismal a view they found this to be. But for me it brings the deepest satisfaction. If I am your instrument, let me be continually perfected.
Even on days of glory, there is work to be done.
Consider:
Can I seek improvement today?
