This is not a flower, it's really a llama

Some very random thoughts

An interesting article on how to measure physical pain from brain scans.  Incidentally, the guy they interviewed for this article is the one who taught the fMRI course.


The joyful sparrows hopping through the parking lot and the beautiful black ravens with their wings stretched, soaring in the grey sky, toward blue mountains shrouded in mist.

The kindness of the bus driver who let me out at a place where the path was less snowy.

Yesterday's torrent of emotions: nervousness, excitement, anticipation followed by shock, sadness, humility, and equanimity.  Who knows what the future holds.

It must be terrible to work hard to run a marathon, finally cross the finish line, only to lose your leg or life.
