It is the second Saturday in the Month of Study. We pass days of ill omen without comment, and emerge safely on the other side, where we take note of that for which we are grateful, all around us.
Glad you're all here.
You may feel alone, a small island of green in a sea of rocky browns and gray...

You may look around and find nothing to which to relate. There may be ominous signs and portents that you are nothing and could easily be crushed.

You may feel truly alone...

But there is hope. There's a whole world of green. I can't promise that you or I will ever find it, but even if not... remember you are an outpost of that green in a sea of rocky browns and gray.
And the green is there...

Go to it, or spread it. Either way, it is there.
Then, perhaps, you are the gray in an ocean of blue. There's a purpose there, too.

but then, that's a story for another time.
Questions, to this point:

My answer to last time's question...
I don't believe in much of anything I haven't seen or that can't be proven. I don't say this with scorn, but more with a touch of sadness. I would never discourage anyone in their beliefs, because I do... believe... the world is an odd and flexible thing and may very well be different for different people.
And hope is a different beast than belief.
My question this time:
What's your question for me?
