The Uses of Sorrow
Today’s Lenten poem from Education for Justice is by Mary Oliver, a favorite of many.
The Uses of Sorrow
Someone I loved once gave me
a box full of darkness.It took me years to understand
that this, too, was a gift.Source: “The Uses of Sorrow” from Thirst, by Mary Oliver. Boston: Beacon
