[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 669977, member: 17461"] Not to go all metaphysical here, but I really do think it has to do with patterns and resolution. It is less that we are victims than that we are active players; on some level, conscious players. In a very real way, though we never can see it until we do, there is a tapestry. Like a kaleidoscope. That is how we see. Everything crashing down around us creating patterns we can make no sense of. BOOM We break. What broke? Everything as we believed it to be. *** Here is something you will find interesting, Leafy. I think this discussion took place before you and Feeling found us. It has to do with Nietzsche's contention that love comes first. Somewhere in FOO Chronicles is that Nietzsche quote. It had to do with loving to be alive because love came first. Love is what we do, what we have always done, what we in fact, are. It was terminally cool. :O) Again, same things everyone is always saying, has always said. Think now of a Down's Syndrome child. Cedar Regarding the electrician, everyone. He does not have the part he needs, which has something to do with a "relay". D H understands. The electrician will come in Spring. For now, D H will set up heaters on thermostats. Huh. Amazing. We are leaving tomorrow morning, and this time? I mean it. :O) Cedar [/QUOTE]
