Excesses


Conversation: "Fire can destroy so much.... a house, trees, animals, and yet fire can be comforting on a cold night or a hint of romance in a candle. Even water, that provides pleasure, or rain that is good for naps, can destroy towns, or perhaps the world." With all the fires here in Santa Cruz and in Brisbane it is certainly on everyones' mind.
Is there anything that one can have in excess? Fun, comes to my mind, as in you can never have... Certainly not pizza, or pop, and even vitamins can be fatal if not monitored.


What about an activity? Can you sit on the porch too much? Or love your dog too much? These are all fine lines frankly, that I cross constantly. I leave the party last, go to bed last, eat last, drink more, laugh more, maybe I should be doing something else more; Reading, Listening, Savoring...I just hope I keep learning.
