RATS IN SHADOW
There are rats in our house!! A nest of rats have made their home in our house, and we don’t care. Let them hide, let them breed, in fact we are going to hide them and encourage more. They love the darkness, so we will let them, hide in shadow. After all, if we give them light, we might see the true scope of the infestation. Do we want to know? Do we need to know? And why are we protecting the rats, that spread plague?

When something goes right, credit is assigned to the most recent action. But this way of seeing consistently misreads causality. Fruit is never the beginning of the story. It is the result of something that has been growing quietly, often unnoticed, for a long time.

A Baby's First Smile
That feeling you get when your newborn baby, beams that gummy smile at you is pretty special. It is a feeling a parent gets that is so fleeting, that you forget it a minute right after and don’t ever think about it or truly remember it again. There will be millions of smiles in life. But the first smile is like the first spring rain and vice versa. Spring in general, gives you that feeling of the first time, for something. It’s renewal, a refreshment of the spirit, after the doldrums of winter.
