We are much involved, all of us, with questions about things that matter a good deal today by will be forgotten by this time tomorrow - the immediate whereas and whens and hows that face us daily at home and at work - but at the same time we tend to lose track of the questions about things that matter always., life-and-death questions about meaning, purpose, and value. To lose track of such deep questions as these is to risk losing track of who we really are in our own depths and when we are really going.
