I'm reading the new Einstein biography. It's difficult reading because I've never taken a physics class. It's also difficult reading because it makes me feel so utterly inadequate.

it all comes back to that beans metaphor again. open a bag of beans and toss them on a tray. They'll disperse randomly, creating the dense clumps and the void spaces. always different. each time you do it ( ... )

oh- and einstein's shit was as stinky as anyone else, and he put his trousers on one leg at a time.

I mean, he may of been close, but he wasn't Yoda or anything.

Thank you, summer. I always love your take on things, you cheer me! I think just keeping on IS the answer, but maybe even more than that is just keeping on loving/smiling/enjoying. The rest of it might be too tied to ego, the need for accomplishment and recognition, and I need to get past that to just enjoying and appreciating what exists aside from whatever projects I might be pursuing.

Hrm, I'm not sure I made sense... We'll talk more about this Monday, when I see ya! I HOPE!
