How to be precise

     kurdish black tea with rose & cardamom from Murî ( rating: 3.6/5)  not usually a fan of astringent black teas but i liked how deep its sapidity still was, righteously balanced with the floral.                                                        Slicing ginger root yesterday urged me to consider why the verb "gingerly" is derived from the plant.

Today I thought about how it really is our duty to fearlessly care for one another--an ethically imperative duty at that. There is no way out and we are going to transform to other forms eventually & each at our own time. But while we are here, we are bound to one another in these forms, in these tempos, in these crises and that care is nothing short of an obligation. Things don't need permeance to be valued, value does not need to be stored in permeance.

To be alive is to experience evanescence!!!!!
