Thanks. I thought about this not long ago as I lost a loyal friend this week. A dog I had rescued at the county animal facility almost exactly 15 years ago. She lived in the moment, ever engaged and happy. Up to the end even oblivious to her approaching end. Would that I live as pure a life, in the moment...static turned way down. http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/l/lao_tzu.html
"Static turned down"... I love that. We have been living will static so long, it just seems to be the norm. I'm on an extended weekend in Tennessee and its static-free. Nice.
