I had to make a trip to Home Depot in West Leb late this afternoon and upon
exiting my car could hear the cacophony of a goodly number of redwings from
across the other side of route 10, a few small groups of five or so flying
overhead in that direction as I entered the store. I drove over after
leaving the depot and found the large patch of fragmites behind Wally World
crawling with literally hundreds of ‘em, settling in for the night.
February 28 sure is the earliest date I’ve ever seen them in such a swarm
in these parts.

It's not by chance that the dark center of human eye, the pupil, is
actually an empty hole through which the world becomes known to us.
Likewise, in a spiritual sense, the I is the empty center through which we
see everything. It's revealing that such a threshold is called the pupil,
for it is only when we are emptied of all noise and dreams of ego that we
become truly teachable. -Mark Nepo
