For some reason I not only grasp your intent but they also cause my mind to wander into other areas. It's the kind of wandering that doesn't make my head hurt from thinking.<br /><br />I'm thinking this election may be one of the few where an individual voter can cast his vote and feel it has more meaning than it has in a long time. Some may call that dreaming.JR Snyder Jrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09825473115986190389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6421367977598373300.post-52933719590055485252010-10-20T17:03:22.755-07:002010-10-20T17:03:22.755-07:00I just wrote am almost intelligent response. Blog...I just wrote am almost intelligent response. Blogger ate it up.<br /><br />That is cool.<br /><br />All I wanted to say was that your father's words are wise (though difficult to put into practice), that I totally agree with you that we are in a major historic moment right now, that I think whatever we do or say to aid or extinguish it is exactly what we are supposed to do, that our hopes and wishes hopefully come true, that hoping and wishing is probably futile, that I love the "surprises" the sun and the mountains and everything else gives just as I love the things that seem constant, and that I take comfort sometimes in the thought that our actions and words might be essential and at the same time am warmed by the idea that maybe none of them matter.<br /><br />Lest you think wonder has become nihilism, I assure you I am voting. Like I said, I have to. :)<br /><br />Cool post, JR! I sometimes get sick of thinking. Not here.<br /><br />PS-the word verification thing just showed up as "oustr". Being me, I'll smile and take that as a sign of good things to come.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
