Recently I was reading a book of a genre less familiar to me than classics of literature, theology, or biographies of Cervantes and the Bard. In the volume was a Thurber gem: “All people should strive to learn before they die, what they are running from, and to, and why.” From, to, and why.

Welcome to wisdom—-Thurber-style.

Walter Mitty’s author wrote verities–truths defining, shaping, suspending trajectories of lives perhaps only too-late examined.
