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
3/3: childhood past and present
Snow and ice on the ground here today. I went walking at sunset. I could hear (but not see) children sledding on the other side of the hill across the lake, their squeals and the sound of their sleds on the ground. The light, snow, and woods all reminded me of the scene on a jigsaw puzzle my siblings and I used to do each winter when we were young, putting pieces together with our mother in the evenings after we finished our homework.
