Moments of the Heart

An early evening skate last week took me by a tree house perched just right in a wise old live oak.  I circled the block and came back to the tree house, stopped and listened.  1981, my wife and I drove down to Houston from Denton for the final interview and what I remember about my first impression were the trees and how much it felt like Baton Rouge, and home.  That feeling stayed with me during the multiple interviews that could have been a disaster, but I was home, and glowed with a comfortable confidence that showed.  Melody Beattie’s book, Journey to the Heart, is about discovering and trusting moments where life lines up.  Learn to trust those moments.
