  1. Whew!!!! Am exhausted catching up on these past blogs. Have to reread them a second and third time to sort out the assumptions shared ... lest they screw me up for good. Thanks for the musings ... am going to, soon, muse back at ya. I feel spent ... but also feel challenged to make sense of stuff around me. Your V. Havel quote reminds me that as much sense as you make ... it is not enough sense. Thank you for reminding me to not sleep with my thoughts ... but to wrestle with them.
