Jeff Johnson and the Bush Library. My days are making things interesting. I am off tomorrow to Texas. I am excited about seeing old friends, getting out of the NE cold, and going to see the Texas A&M - Oklahoma State basketball game on Saturday night. But back to last night - I made the mistake of saying at lunch that I loved the program last night...mine was not the majority opinion. Why would that surprise me, but it did. But maybe my freewill "speaks to it.
To create a pearl, an oyster needs an aggravating parasite inside its shell. It builds layers of calcium carbonate around the invader, gradually fabricating the treasure. How long does it take from the initial provocation to the finished product? Five years for a pearl of average size, and as many as ten years for a big one. I hope that puts into perspective the tenacious work you're doing on your own master project, Libra. It may seem sometimes as if you've been striving to transform your irritant for an eternity, but you're actually right on schedule.
Keep that thought while I am gone.
