Whatever it is that pulls the pin, that hurls you past the boundaries of your own life into a brief and total beauty, even for a moment, it is enough.   – Jeanette Winterson, Gut Symetries, p. 219

Symmetries intrigue me, but it’s the tiny perturbations from perfect symmetry that keep me interested, engaged, and leaning forward.

Today I’m thankful for symmetries, and modest perturbations.

  1. I’m thankful that this site has become important enough to me that I didn’t let it become Tuesday without posting.
  2. I’m thankful for that pang when I’m missing someone, a gentle reminder of what’s important.
  3. And for making me laugh when I just wanted to scream today, thank you.

For what are you thankful?
