"THERE DO EXIST ENQUIRING MINDS, which long for the truth of the heart, seek it, strive to solve the problems set by life, try to penetrate to the essence of things and phenomena and to penetrate into themselves. If a man reasons and thinks soundly, no matter which path he follows in solving these problems, he must inevitably arrive back at himself, and begin with the solution of the problem of what he is himself and what his place is in the world around him. For without this knowledge, he will have no focal point in his search. Socrates’ words, “Know thyself” remain for all those who seek true knowledge and being."

Searching For A New Home


The Universe has pushed and pushed until I finally have to say "Uncle". It is time to move.

There is a serious mold problem in my home due to 72 hours of tropical rains and a severe allergic reaction are making it a must. Being Florida, there always was mold here, but never as dangerous as it is now. The roof leaked during the recent nonstop deluge and now a rather nasty strain has been blown all over the apartment... and me, by the AC. The air ducts have to be removed and replaced, the ceiling has to be gutted and replaced, and roof will have to re surfaced. While all this is going on there is no avoiding the reality that I cannot be here.

The other end of the stick ... I've been wanting to live somewhere else, someplace with a garden...


... TBC
