Clues from poet William Stafford (1914-1993) on some important things:

• "Your job is to find out what the world is trying to be."
• "No harm in being quiet – that's the sound that finally wins."
• "The world looks tame, but might go wild, any time."
• "Just being is a big enough job, no time for anything else."
• "That one open, great, real thing – the world's gift: day."

Thank you for those gifts, and many others, Mr Stafford – and for the example you set of soft, steady sharing ...
