How Godric became Deric and sailed the seas with Roger Mouse

We must all have in our lives a Roger Mouse. Godric says that Roger "...lived and game me lessons in the art." What would life be without a friend to tear us away from the mundane, the self-righteous, or even the thrilling of our own making?
"We loved each other, Mouse and I, and our love was born of need, for so it always is with mortal folk. God's love's all gift, for God has need of naught, but human folk love one another for the way they fill each other's emptiness," says Godric. The truth of that rests in the notion that we are empty in places. There is a sad hollowness that reigns in us all, at times, and too often at many a time. We are searching, restlessly, like Godric for the holy isle of Farne, for our own place of acceptance. And in the friendships we find, we hope to have a momentary place of rest in the midst of the vast sea that is our life.
