Re: Whale Tale

What an incredible write -- I had no idea.  How amazing that someone is seeing and hypothesizing on the matter.  The historic rule has been that humankind is far to stupid to see these things, or to  stupid to listen to those who do.  Wonderful eye-opener.

Re: Power of Imposter Syndrome

? The title makes this poem a galivanting quandary.  That feeling arises-- of being an imposter -- from your 18 word poem, but there is so much more, hard to put into words, but certainly an existential assertion.  The poem pulls no punches.

Bravo.

Re: It's All an Analogy

Consciousness waiting for life. . . what an incredible concept.  More conceptual POV, I think, maybe, than science.  But your science is framed by a POV.  My head hurts.  This is really provocative.

Re: Happy News - Janet!

Sorry it took me forever, but I've been intending to post this snippet from Janet's book, a marvelous passage, which captures the central theme -- We’ve forever hungered for how sweet at last to savor with no cast shadow of what will come no matter how it ends we begin believing always awake praying...

Re: Greetings. New here

Well said. This and every other writing site is a 100% step up from Facebook.  Unless you're on FB to keep up with family birthdays, etc.  But that doesn't take long, right?

I hope you find a writing home here.

Cheers.
