Winter In Spring… or is it Spring in Winter?
Who knows?
All I know is the weather has been really ‘well-behaved’, if I may say. Although I have experienced some horrid conditions, it has not been as bad as what I was made to feel when I got here… Wait, did I just say that? I have heard that it’s called being ‘acclimatized’ and whatever it is, it’s a good thing. However, these conditions make me worry to an extent about Earth. Will these conditions foster and encourage human life and support it to grow next year? Next decade? Fifty or hundred years from now? This reminds me what I have been learning in my Dignitas Class as well as through my random discussions with friends – we have to practice stewardship for our good and for future generations’ good.
This may seem out of the line but considering that at St. Scholastica one of our foundation pillars is the Benedictine value of Stewardship, it might well be worth to mull over.

View outside Kerst Apartment early in the morning. Took this on my way to work when I noted how the environs were all coated by fresh snow.
