The Rule of 3 is a writing principle that suggests that a trio of entities such as events or characters is more
Three entities combines both brevity and rhythm with having the smallest amount of information to create a pattern.
The rule has been confirmed by anthropological experts as an archetypal principle that works on three levels:
Though tonight she’s made me sad
If I find her I’ll be glad
I still love herI don’t wanna spoil the party so I’ll go
I Don’t Want to Spoil the Party by The Beatles (1964)
I would hate my disappointment to show
There’s nothing for me here so I will disappear
If she turns up while I’m gone please let me know
There’s no fun in what I do if she’s not there
But I think I’ll take a walk and look for her
Find what you love and let it kill you. Let it drain you of your all, cling onto your back, and weigh you down into eventual nothingness. Let it devour your remains, for all things will kill you, both slowly & fastly, but it’s much better to be killed by a lover.

Five Good Minutes
by Brantley & Millstine @ New Harbinger Books
Great achievements once considered impossible were accomplished with the help of other people (and other animals).
Seven older gentlemen of various political persuasions gather in the courtyard under the squawking birds to politely discuss and examine, in regulated heartbeat, the current issues and events of the week.
They also like to talk about their high-school classmates, both living & dead, unknown to others outside of Los Gatos. It’s an exclusive club.
