I like eclipses...because that implies there is more to the story and that I don't know all of the answers because maybe (maybe!) the emerging nature of the universe (and certainly our perception...) allows new answers to form.  Maybe we can (do...?) try on new realities just for fun because (maybe...) there is no one permanent reality. (That is not to excuse ALL things or even to explain all things. It is to allow all things whatever is to be.) "That's crazy talk." "Yes. But, is it really?" -- doug smith

 I had the delight of participating in this Zoom production of Treasure Island. Here is Episode 1 of 3:

  The trouble with revolution is breaking things. The problem with ignoring tradition is that you forget what got you here, and what has mattered before. Certainly, we don't need to follow tradition without question. We also don't need to overplay our hand. Nuance is an art. Inspiration is an art. Balance...well, you know...it's an art. -- doug smith
