Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
2/17: on the other side
I've gotten so used to being a teacher that I think I sometimes forget what it's like to be a student. Today, however, I went to the first meeting of an evening astronomy class being offered at a nearby state college. It was so weird to take notes! And to feel nervous about chiming in! It's a good to have a first-hand reminder of what it's like to be sitting in the classroom rather than be standing in front of it.
waking up with an inner stillness so deep that initially confuses me and then gives way to a peace that melts hearts.
