    Conversations with Calliope- Immediacy and Reason

    Oatka Creek Dam


    (Oatka Creek Dam)

    JOE: Good morning Calliope.
    CALLIOPE: Good morning Joe. What's new?
    JOE: I just received Joan Chittister's new book, Welcome to the Wisdom of the World.
    CALLIOPE: It sounds similar to the theme of your writing.
    JOE: Very observant. That's why I bought it.
    CALLIOPE: Have you started reading it?
    JOE: Yes. Last night.
    CALLIOPE: Any revelations so far?
    JOE: She starts with the problem of immediacy about which I have also written.
    CALLIOPE: What's the problem?
    JOE: The world moves now with a pace that seems impossible to keep up with. You have to act without thinking to keep pace. If not the world moves on without you.
    CALLIOPE: What does she suggest?
    JOE: I haven't gotten that far yet.
    CALLIOPE: Sounds like a good book.
    JOE: I have found her other writings well reasoned, thoughtful and helpful. I am sure this book will continue the tradition. Talk with you on Monday.
