When despair grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting for their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

— Wendell Berry, The Peace of Wild Things

A Free, Artsy Day in New York City

Over Christmas break, my fiancé, Ryan, and I had the amazing opportunity to travel to Rome, Italy (check out those adventures here if you haven’t yet). The cheapest flights to Rome were from NYC, and when the opportunity presents itself to have a day in NYC, you don’t turn it down. Both of us have already done most of the really big touristy attractions in New York and we’re both poor graduate students, so we decided on an itinerary that allowed us a free day in the city (aside from food, of course).
