I work to remember to stop frequently in life to enjoy the view while I climb the mountain. To be still requires a strong sense of personal identity and an intimate relationship with enduring values. The cold and flu season are on us. Illness magnifies every problem. The children are too raucous.
Food is bland.
War seems more likely. Snowstorms prowl on the skyline. The pillow is too hard. The earth is dim, drab, and pointless. Even Jay Leno seems vulgar.
