JUDGE SONIA SOTOMAYOR

From time to time, I spot a peregrine falcon perched on the steeple of the Cathedral across from my apartment. Her unexpected presence always surprises and delights me. I watch as neither pigeon nor sparrow can detract her from her perch.

I noticed the falcon again today as I read about the life of Judge Sonia Sotomayer, President Obama's nominee for appointment to the Unites States Supreme Court. Like the falcon I observe, how inspirational that Judge Sotomayor's life and career could bring her to this country's highest perch of justice.
