“Intimacy requires courage because risk is inescapable. We cannot know at the outset how the relationship will affect us. Like a chemical mixture, if one of us is changed, both of us will be. Will we grow in self-actualization, or will it destroy us? The one thing we can be certain of is that if we let ourselves fully into the relationship for good or evil, we will not come out unaffected.” ~ Rollo May
“Those who fear the imagination condemn it: something childish, they say, something monsterish, misbegotten. Not all of us dream awake. But those of us who do have no choice.” ~ Patricia A. McKillip
It’s so easy to let a morning drift by. The lap cat doesn’t help; although I must say she is being quite tolerant of me typing over her at the moment. Fuzzy-eyed I am. But the coffee tastes good and the mind seems to be pretty clear, all things considered. I am well aware that I haven’t posted in a couple of weeks. I could blame it on the cat, of course. They take blame right in stride because they generally don’t give a fig. A large part of of not writing lately is that I have been reading the news in more depth. This stuff these days is rich beyond measure. And it takes time to do a little deep-diving in this wealth of historical activity. All explanations aside, I actually feel good today. Go figure, right? Yeh buddy. It’s a workday, but 6 hours rather than the accustomed eight. I’m down with that. Work has been fun lately, with changes galore happening all around me. Of course my personal transformation continues. I’m becoming annoyed with the remaining MRSA wound. It’s going on four months, but they told me that it takes a lot of time. There is no pain, as such. Occasional burning. A twinge here and there. And some day are simply copious itching. Yeh, it’s getting better. I just needed to whine a tad. This writing feels good! I should do it more often. Yup; maybe I just needed a break. Oh, BTW . . . look up Senator Corey Booker’s speech on behalf of Judge Jackson, in the Supreme Court hearings. CSPAN should have it. The dude was epic! Click here, k? I’d best meander on to work. Onward.
Peace out, y’all. Goof gloriously.
