The weekend ahead..

..and a walk to look forward to with my collaborator, Frank.

Good prospects and I feel optimistic and the sun is shining with bright abandon, not caring for its carbon footprint. Equally oblivious is the young snail sliding up my window - what effort must that take?

Buoyed by these events, I put my family name into Wikipedia and discovered a contemporary evidently killed by the Khmer Rouge, having been an English teacher in Japan and a yachtsman (it was from The Foxy Lady that he was abducted by KR pirates). Now I know it's a mistake to always stay safe but the story served to make me feel ever gladder for what I have here, now and around me. If I believed in God (properly, that is), I'd attribute these 'blessings' to His Wondrous Mercy but since I remain in Limbo with Agnosticism, I'll just dwell in the warmth it all brings.

More after Tuesday...
