Daily Meditation for May 30, 2025

The state bird of Minnesota is the beautiful and beloved loon. As a teenager, Jess developed the arcane art of imitating the wild, eerie call of the loon. One evening, she was fishing with her dad when some loons began calling. Her dad said, “Call them, Jess.” She did, and soon a small flotilla of loons came swimming up to the boat and started diving under and swimming around it. She was astonished and transfixed during this experience, which has stayed clear in her memory all her life. Up here, we look forward to summer, when new things happen. We hope all of us will have a magical event to remember. We writers will be on vacation from June to September. Look for us when we return ready for serious work!
