Good Morning SuperForest!
I think the worst of the nasties is behind me, as I have felt well enough to actually check email! Wowzers.
During my prolonged period of horizontality, I’ve been tearing through Tom Robbins wonderful book “Skinny Legs and All”, which the lovely SuperForester Christine lent me.
Here’s a great quote:
“Oh, yes! To say that Arab and Jew are brothers and sisters is not to say that we are the same. There are racial differences among people, yes? There are cultural differences, sexual differences…
In my opinion, those differences can be good. What a dull world this would be were we all alike. What an evolutionay dead end! To be brothers, to live in peace, we do not have to be overly similar. We do not have to admire or even like one another’s peculiarities. We need only respect those peculiarities-and to be grateful for them. Our similarities provide us with a common ground, but our differences allow us to be fascinated by one another. Differences give human encounters their snap and their fizz and their brew…”
Yes! Ah ha ha ha!
Love to All,
Jackson
