Ahhh....patterns. My ritual two cups of coffee in the wee hours of the morning, when the quiet of the house, the background distant train whistle....sublime. I think our kitty's patterns are to follow the sun around the house, lay, lounge, veg. Yes, yes, I need to expand and when I do I am glad I did. But like any "expand" I "contract" back into my patterns.

Such an interesting column, Wendy. The balance between chaos with the pleasure of the unexpected and consistency with the pleasure of repetition and patterns. A beautiful, poignant, and thought-provoking ending. I love your photos, too!

A powerful statement: "My place on this earth may be small and insignificant, but it is my own, it is somewhat orderly, and to me, it makes sense."

This really resonates with me. In my present circumstances, I am learning to bring order, for myself, at least, out of chaos. You put it so eloquently.
