corner view ≈ a positive thought for bad moments

the quote being a little on the biblical side, i find scriptural sayings often explanatory and clarifying. my late ants alice and marie were biblical ladies. in my infantile perception, i realize today they applied a language only a little short of speaking in tongues. which in itself is a phenomenon i've been fascinated by since talking heads' marvelous 1983 album. i'm deviating.

i usually prefer pragmatic solutions to stuff i don't always get straightaway. in a life in which i didn't even know the meaning of the word pragmatic up to a few years ago, i dare now safely utter i find mathematics foremostly a philosophy. and swimming in the pond, besides training, rather classifies under natural sciences, and then some. cooking is relaxing (if this is your case) and noise delivers peace. right?

 

it's a toughy. i've been thinking about collecting, since my attention got caught by a magazine article, in which collecting was considered an eligible excuse for trying to save time, perhaps even stopping time. in a bottle e.g., or in a shallow dish. i'm off again, in the  opposite direction. 
all this to say, in dire times, i wishfully think, this too shall pass. this week's sensible theme a positive thought for bad moments, chosen by ibabe, on jane's corner view, hosted by fuoriborgo.
