...Nor do I.




As I have grown older I have grown more aware of the subtle, sordid private lives of adults. With wastes of broad tracts of memory our loves slowly collapse into the whole that we are--enumerations of relationships. There always remains that inward care for the unblemished acts of lovers, whose confidences can only be kept and cleared away by glances. Reading myself there, without your love, all of the details of your life are trivial, pathetic. How is it that the uninterrupted searching for meaning cleaves us, searching. This time, I will put the fuming resentment down, and like some cities, rebuild my foundations on the extinct volcano.

Tonight, I will return to the road, which is all I can to do to
keep from falling over. All I can do is run, that is, falling forward. The body regains its edge by straining and sucking in the cold air. The teeming pause before--this emotional life--is reckoned in the body...becoming flaccid. Now this, is the best mental hygiene.

Ah, so it is a new moon in Scorpio with Sun/Moon conjunct.

I will soon post my running from the camera challenge ...

Yes,

"The universal human need to find meaning and purpose in life is stronger and more basic than any attachment to empiricism, logic or objective reality."

I actually haven't gotten around to doing it, though I have not broken my resolution to run every night. I have a history test tonight and a paper to craft on Thanatopsis, and I work.

Friday seems likely.

I spent half the class in Immunology convincing others that fried chicken (like a lot of fat-oil fried animal products) stimulates inflammation, I earned myself a presentation to give Monday.

I will have sources that are slightly less apocryphal...

I garnered lifelong information for that course. My last presentation, among group presentations, was on this:

3.6 mile walk last night. I focus on mileage not speed, but a walking pace > 3 mph is the goal.
