I understand the preference for brevity.

Amazingly and contrary to public perceptions about my many paginated pontifications inviting palaverous paradoxes in the electronic parlor . . .

I have become, actually, briefer than in earlier decades in my life. And, Alamo-Girl has had no small partin that.

HOWEVER, MY OWN DELIGHT is in the longer narratives which allow me to sort of come along side and even occasionally sort of, to a degree, step inside the other’s skin and see the world through their eyes, thoughts and feelings. That richness I deeply and intensely enjoy.

I certainly would not want to give that up in the name of brevity.

But then, I’m much more typically in favor of the HEBREW notion of KNOWING vs the GREEK.

I’m much more inclined to tete a tete exhaustively on a topic or thread than I am to sip drops of necter from a 100 more flowers than the few I’d otherwise drink deeply from.

Yet, somehow, I manage to at least scan, if not read significantly on a very wide range of topics.
