Among the Possibilities

At first you think you're the model of calm and serene demeanor. Then in the middle of the night you wake up thinking about the universe in relation to your life,

It isn't as if you're solving any cosmic mysteries. You wonder if the desk will fit in a new space. You wonder about electric outlets and lamps.

You question the purchase of a matched set of twenty-four paper towels, of extra large boxes of detergent, of bottled water on sale, and of purchasing a two year date book.

You wonder about the courage of the homeless.
