Of Importance

I was just outside taking some paper to the recycling bin. I saw a patch of Queen Anne's lace next to a nice patch of grass - the tall kind. The arrangement looked beautiful although humans never touched it except for the occasional grass cutting. As long as these plants are within the cut line they are left to their own devices. The beauty was striking. Nature is important to me, the environment.

I just signed a letter to my congressperson about a renewable energy bill. I hope he will listen to me. This is important in the long term.

Memories

What is memory? How accurate can a recollection be? I am starting to think about various things that happened in my life - some of them feel like they happened such a long time ago - others, feel like they just happened this morning or even yesterday.
