One of my favorite of your essays and near the subject of the essay I plan to offer for the STSC "The Good Life" Symposium. I needed inspiration as I was writing that and then you posted this essay. So, thanks!

Seeing this on Dec 31st for the first time. Good perspective for the new year. Letting ourselves have some space so life can come to us.
