This combination of nonfiction and fiction vignettes tickled my brain and soul in the best way. Thank you for this gift to slow down and step back from the madness

I long to belong to the unhurried class.

I love how each section is a free-standing "object," even as they build to a fascinating vision. Also, moved to tears by the big-bellied man with the rusty pick up truck, his clarity and commitment to right action, so graciously performed.

A stranger once stopped to help me change my flat tire on a rainy evening in Washington, DC while his wife and children waited nearby. I'll never forget that kindness, especially in a place like DC where most belong to the hurried class.

You've beautifully captured an essence of why our relationship to time matters in shaping our character and society.

The symmetry and movement of this was solid. The right type of climb up and down the tapestry of stories.
