It's just another day for me. I was surprised when I looked up Friday the 13th to see the number of people who do have reactions to the date. The only time I think of 13 at all is when I purchase donuts or bagels. Is it a bakers dozen or a dozen for that price?
Dark chocolate is my favorite as well. I agree totally unadulterated chocolate is the only way to go. My husband teases me about a purist. My ice cream unadorned, my coffee black... no sweeteners or creamer for me.
"It would almost be arrogant to assume that out of countless billions of galaxies, each with billions of stars, and an increasing number of confirmed exoplanets, Earth is the only place where life has emerged." I have this argument with my mother constantly
Every morning this dog, very attached to me,
Quietly keeps sitting near my seat
Til touching its head
I recognize its company.
This recognition gives it so much joy.
Pure delight ripples through the entire body.
Among all dumb creatures
it is the only living being
That has seen the whole man
Beyond what is good or bad in him.
It has seen,
For his love it can sacrifice its life.
It can love him too for the sake of love alone,
For it is he who shows the way
To the vast world pulsating with life.
When I see its deep devotion,
The offer of its whole being,
I fail to understand
By its sheer instinct
What truth it has discovered in man.
By its silent anxious piteous looks
it cannot communicate what it understands,
But it has succeeded in conveying to me
Among the whole creation
What is the true status of man.
