Well, we pinched the pot mums last week and I can already see some lateral growth. This is a new sensation for me! Throughout my academic career, I was always studying events after the fact. The student of history and mythologist is more observer than actor, chroniclers of those that were responsible for great events. Here, now, I am the beginning of the process. I am the process. I act, and there is a visible response to my actions.
Intriguing comment. Are we ever just mere observers? Don't we predicate our actions on some subliminal level...kind of like the butterfly effect? I am of the opinion that the things I want to affect, or effect change in, are the ones that are important enough for me to spend time on. The rest, I don't know.
