If you have a thought and you don’t write it down, there is a high likelihood that you will forget it. The life expectancy of an unrecorded thought is low. If you don’t write it down, it’s as if the thought doesn’t exist.

Putting a thought in writing is an act of creation. You are making it real.

A bed of mud. A nursery for the lotus.

The flower blooms whether one sees it or not.

Glittering fish shelter in shadows and shallow roots.

The great white heron hunts with wings unfurled and unseen.
