Namaste all,
thank you for your kind words and thoughts

they are greatly appreciated.
if i may wax a bit philosophic (or idiotic, depending on your view

)....
in my view, if we could get down to a basic description of life or atleast life as experienced by human beings, we could easily say that a basic factor of human existence is change. perhaps, more properly, humans experience the fourth dimension as the process of change in the normal three dimensions. which is a long winded way of saying "life is chacterized by change". clearly, not an original thought
in any event, this past month of April has been one of great personal change and said change is still occuring, as it always does. perhaps, there are times in our life of change that we become more acutely aware of it. those moments when we look upon the reflection of this physical form and notice that the physical features don't match what our mental image of our being is, for instance. those times when we notice that our old way of thinking no longer is sufficient, those times when our wisdom outshines our confusion...
