It now begins . . .

Now I've gone and done it.  Committed myself to a (?) daily post.  I will  try.  If I don't keep it up it is Linda Hamilton's fault as she suggested the title 'The Daily Howl'.  I will begin with a quote:


Tired
And lonely,
So tired
The heart ache.
Melt water trickles
Down the rocks,
The fingers are numb,
The knees tremble.
It is now,
Now, that you must not give in.


On the path of the others
Are resting places,
Places in the sun
Where they can meet.
But this
is your path,
And it is now,
Now, that you must not fail.


Weep,
If you can,
Weep,
But do not complain.
The way chose you—
And you must be thankful.


Dag Hammarskjold
