Let’s rest our souls, by Mandy Ford
A lot of us have “keeper cards”—those accessible art cards and greeting cards we put on the fridge, keep as a reminder, or fold into the pages of our favorite books. They hold a quote or image that draws us, that we want to return to. Maybe we’re drawn to the lettering, the colors, the illustration. We might prize the words that remind us to pay attention to the soul, the night sky, the brisk cold, the end of the day, the constellation coming alive across the night sky.
