I decided to Google(c) the subtitle of my site “impermanence of being” and this is at the top of the search result. Hmmmm. The reading was pretty heavy and some references to other authors were beyond me. The average person reading this who isn’t familiar with college texts would be very intimidated.

I just finished de-weeding part of my yard, and those harmless looking dandelion stems and leaves are not connected to thin, weak, multitudinous roots. No. They’re connected to one monstrously thick root that extends very deeply into the earth. I didn’t pull one dandelion root out that was less than an inch deep.

Phonographic memory is not one of my abilities or talents. Me: So how’s the baby doing? Greg: Good. But her belly is really solid. Nothing like mine [he’s been on and off on his diet] all squishy. Hers is really solid. The baby’s kicking a lot. Really…
