I'm not giving attention to this blog lately, but this will eventually be
a major aspect of my online writing.  

The Plan is that my constellation of online projects will all eventually lead into a musing of my being ultimately in the condition of everyone: a short life in an ordinary galaxy speeding away from all other galaxies (though our Milky Way will fuse with Andromeda in a few billion years) in this universe that’s evidently expanding infinitely from a Big Bang that happened inexplicably from Nowhere.

There is that in this. And We will never know why.

“...this universe...”? A universe among others? (Is the especially blue area of the COBE image [near the center] another universe bumping this one?)

“...our Milky Way...”? Our Milky Way?

Hello, Silence, my old friend.

...text...text...text.

So what? We create good reason
to flourish, evolving
by design
of
Our
own.

I love being—despite ultimate mystery echoing in quantum foam.

Dear man of the moon,

The summer fog over the S.F. Bay isn’t so low tonight that I can’t see
the emerald city across the way. High up, your three-quarter face emerges and wanes in the wind.
