Amidst fragments of unity Am I

The quality of an experience is measured by that which preceeds it. A thorough and intimate knowlege may pervade our strange interpretations, but in explaining such our presentation becomes focal rather than the matter at hand. Some drama is to be expected in this rough exchange, and lordy-lord knoweth man all too well to tell us to understand otherwise. Ideally, recogniton of indulgency would seemingly lead to corrective action, but where's the fun in that? Admiration invites critique, as flies to wanton boys go.

Finding meaning in a dream
From which we wake suddenly
Time is about the only thing
That can be taken, seriously.

Art is long, life is short.
—Goethe
Hippocrates is supposed to have originated this saying which is better known in Latin
"Ars longa, vita brevis est."
