One day have someone read to you the story of the blind men and the elephant, where a single perspective can be misleading.

The best in world story-telling.

Ekbal & Birbal, on blindness... if I remember correctly...

The elephant is this... " _ " that I have touched, not able to see. ... 

Yes - Vedanta lore.

That does not bequeathe ... melodies of backyards' rivulets ...

Did you NOT want them to look for possibilities? Sheesh. What the heck do people want except to be "edgy"? 

Cynical is boring.

I know you know what they're worried about and they're trying to get ahead of it all, so

LONG day. I was scheduled for kidney surgery at 2:45pm & checked in at 12:30pm. Something caused a backup in the OR rooms & I waited in pre-op until after 6pm.  By the time the I had the surgery & was released it was 9pm.  Ugh. That said, the procedure went off without a hitch, huge stone removed, no sign of infection. I'll be recovering for a week before the stent is removed.  Up late, for some reason after all that I'm not tired enough to sleep. I'll be laying low & taking it easy for a few days. Thanks to all who sent me their good wishes, much appreciated.
