""HAST any philosophy in thee, Shepherd?" was the question of Touchstone in the Shakespeare play; and that is the question we must always ask ourselves. Long ago Kant said that it is the mission of philosophy, not to discover truth, but to set it in order, to seek out the rhythm of things and their reason for being."

-Joseph Fort Newton

Master's Message

March

Spring is right around the corner, hopefully, and it is important to treasure the lessons that winter enabled us to learn. Lessons which, unlike the fleeting snow, should not melt from the landscape of our minds.

Emily Dickenson, in her poem The Bee, encourages us to consider thoughtfully the dance of those architects of our ecosystem whose industry is displayed in the petals of every flower. Contemplate the coming swell of sunlight and warmth and remain thankful for all the manifest blessings of health and safety we enjoy.

-Lucas M. Walsh
