glorycloud's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- he entered the inner sanctuary of the divine mystical doctrine It is 2:39 PM Friday afternoon here where I am at. It is 31 degrees, cloudy, windy, icy cold and plain dismal. It is predicted to snow tomorrow here in Western Michigan. I got up this morning around 8 o'clock AM. As I was coming out of the Lower Level Carol was leaving to have breakfast with a friend. I had a normal morning while Carol was gone. She was back home before I left to volunteer at the Book Nook. The Book Nook was somewhat busy but not super busy. When not helping people with their used materials I read from a book titled, 'Platonism & Mystical Theology: The Spiritual Doctrine of St Gregory of Nyssa' by Jean Danielou. I bought one used book at the Book Nook today titled, 'Romantic Gardens: Nature, Art, and Landscape Design' by Elizabeth Barlow Rogers, Elizabeth S. Evans, & John Bidwell. Carol showed up at 1:10 PM to do her volunteer shift. I drove home and have done the usual. As usual I am tired and feel like a sunken ship. Last night I basically read from these books and went to bed around 11 o'clock PM- 'Platonism & Mystical Theology: The Spiritual Doctrine of St Gregory of Nyssa' by Jean Danielou Edited by Rev. Ignatius Green Translated by Anthony P. Gythiel and Michael Donley 'From Glory To Glory: Texts From Gregory Of Nyssa's Mystical Writings' Selected and with an Introduction By Jean Danielou, S.J. Translated and Edited By Herbert Musurillo, S.J. 'Commentary On The Song Of Songs' By Saint Gregory of Nyssa Translated with an Introduction by Casimir McCambley, OCSO 'The Life Of Moses' By Gregory of Nyssa Translation, Introduction And Notes By Abraham J. Malherbe And Everett Ferguson Preface By John Meyendorff [The Classics Of Western Spirituality] It is 3:03 PM Carol should be home soon from volunteering at the Book Nook. She might go to a Woman's Theology Conference tonight and for sure tomorrow she go. This morning Carol had to attend a funeral, one of her cousins had died. As you grow older your family members and friends die one after another. I am going to close to feel wasted. 3:15 p.m. - 2023-03-17 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
