How can a *straight* line, extending itself out to reach itself, form a circle of infinite diameter? Explain.

How can a *spherical* object represent the universe? Expand the metaphor.

Inner Coast Range

Sunol Regional Wilderness

Flag Hill at Sunol Wilderness is a slab of ancient sea floor which, in response to pressure from below, was tilted up more on one side than the other, revealing a cross-section of its sedimentary layers.

The hill shows a vegetation pattern typical of the inner coast ranges. During summer, the hot sun dries the south-facing slope. Only grassland and soft chaparral can survive under these conditions. On the north-facing slope where moisture lasts longer, trees thrive.

Sunol is one of the most beautiful parks in the Bay Area.

The Rule of 3 is a writing principle that suggests that a trio of entities such as events or characters is more

  • humorous
  • satisfying
  • effective.

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:

  • sentences
  • situations
  • stories.

Isak Borg Listens To Anders & Viktor

A: Ah, when creation shows so much beauty, how radiant must be the source!

V: How can anyone today study to become a minister!

A: Your rationalism is as dry as dust.

V: I say that modern man believes in only himself and his biological death.

A: Modern man is a figment of your imagination. Man regards death with horror.

V: Religion for the people. Opium for the aching limb.

I will understand if you quit looking for now, but if you decide to give up: click here.

Every time you let go of something limiting, you create space for something better.
