Partial Light
Sometimes argument is futile.
We see only in part.
I don’t know all the answers, because I don’t know all the questions.
A finger pointing at the moon is not the moon.
When we look at the moon, we’re also seeing the sun – reflected light. Is the moon the sun?
I need to keep opening my eyes wider.

Too bad I had dinner looking at this corner by myself. :( It would have been fun to share with you, Dad and Pete.

calming and warm on this cold february morn'
Welcome and thank you, Chris. I agree. These are some of my fave colors.
It's so strange, Ruth. I left a comment the other day and I see it's not here. Actually, this is happening on Nate's site as well. Very strange.
Anyway, I said that I particularly love the Irish icon of the harp/lyre on the back of the chair. It's one of the most soulful symbols/icons of my life :) Guess I must be part Irish!
I also said something brilliant about the sun/moon dichotomy but can't remember what!
Boots: I noticed yesterday that there was 1 comment on the main page, but when I went to look at the comment, there was nothing there. I suspected something malfunctioned. I'm sorry it was you! I wish you could remember about the sun/moon dichotemy!
Yes, that harp is such a great image. I didn't realize it meant so much to you! (Or I forgot.) Did you see the original in the Trinity College library? http://skippyshamrock.tripod.com/harp.jpg
This is a very cool way to help us think about what we THINK we know and understand.
