On a funnier note:

In a certain land, was once a man who discovered something that no one else had ever seen before -- but, since it was something totally beyond their experience, when he tried to describe it to others they weren't able to understand what he was talking about (although some seemed quite interested). So he said to them: "Let me go off and think about this, and I'll get back with you." And think on it he did, and returned to them with this idea: "What I'll do is this -- while I continually keep in my mind the unknown thing I discovered, I'll talk to you in a certain manner about everything you have experienced, and once I've covered everything possible, all that will remain will be my discovery, and perhaps then it will become visible to you."
(From all angles, however, the challenge is how to describe air to air.)

The beauty (generally speaking)
in living the ordinary life of habit
is in its overall ease,
safety, and familiarity....or so I’ve heard.
