Hello? Is there anybody
out there? Here I am here and there you are there. It’s quiet in the house and
the only sounds are the clock ticking and the hum of the refrigerator. There is
some incense burning in the corner and a candle flickers softly in the corner
of the room. I close my eyes and let my mind just drift away to somewhere but I
don’t know where. I think about turning on the television but why spoil things
with a lot of racket? What else do I need to know anyway? The things they tell
me I need to know, I usually don’t need to know. I’m looking out the window and
I see a raccoon scampering across the yard and later I hear an owl hooting from
a nearby tree branch. I am taking in the wonders of the universe. What other
entertainment do I need?
