The Monday Morning Memo


If you read the poem (above) from top to bottom, it feels as though it was woven as a single piece. But the first half was written in 1838. The second half was written 80 years later.

And those two famous writers never met each other.

This image of Indy and the poem was sent our attention by J.P. Englebrecht (of Englebrecht House on the campus of Wizard Academy.)

On July 27, 2025, J.P was searching for the name of an artist online when Google presented him with the image above. It was Indy’s banner at the top of the Monday Morning Memo published exactly 10 years earlier… July 27, 2015.

And J.P. was mentioned in it by name.

Random Quote:

“No man is brave that has never walked a hundred miles. If you want to know the truth of who you are, walk until not a person knows your name. Travel is the great leveler, the great teacher, bitter as medicine, crueler than mirror-glass. A long stretch of road will teach you more about yourself than a hundred years of quiet introspection.”

- Patrick Rothfuss, The Wise Man's Fear, p. 847
