You know those mundane, repetitive tasks we all do to make our lives manageable? Or the exercise routines--- even just walking--- that are so good for us yet can seem like such a waste of precious time? Some people listen to music to make chores or exercise more enjoyable. I never remember to do that. For a lifetime, I’ve used that time to think my deep thoughts--- or not so deep.
