This is what else

Things are changing

As they most certainly have before, and will again. I find for myself, those I care about, the nation, for all these, I find that now we stand at the edge of change. Usually this is where one goes into a metaphor that involves something like darkness at the edge of a steep precipice and a leap of faith, courage and the difference between success and failure. I'm not going there. Maybe that's cowardly, not straining into your divining navel to find out what the future holds for yourself. But maybe it's wise. Much of the stress of life comes from the anticipation of what is to (but may not) come. I don't need it, don't want it. I have an idea of what I should do and I'll do it. There is so much in the present that is worth my attention. So much.

Tomorrow is sufficient for the evil thereof.
