A few words to ponder for a Tuesday

In descrbing the purpose of his wonderful book Do Nothing To Change Your Life: Discovering What Happens When You Stop, Stephen Cottrell, Anglican bishop of Reading, England, writes: "out of patient attentiveness to the present an eternity can be grasped".

Nice. I'm not sold on the word grasped - how about an eternity can be touched?

Since I blog as a Roman Catholic deacon it is important to note that I do so with knowledge of my pastor and the authorities of the Diocese of Salt Lake City, where I live and the Church into which I am incardinated. This does not mean anything I write reflects the views of my pastor, my bishop, The Cathedral of the Madeleine, or my diocese, neither does it imply a canonically granted nihil obstat, or an imprimatur. Stated simply, everything that appears here is my responsibility, especially that which turns out to be stupid and/or uncharitable.

Especially in the first hour or two after I post an article, I correct grammatical and spelling errors. During this time I also clarify some of what I write. After that time I may correct glaring typos, but leave the substance unchanged.
