we so rarely speak…     if Kate was ill, oh….(Kate phoned Julie in the middle of the night, disorientated…. and Julie phoned me. For some time, soon before her call, I was extremely agitated, anxious… I didn't know why)))

18 years gone

6. Now re-titled Homeopathy

 

 

it's poly-discriminative - it's not just yes and no, left and right, dark and light, top and bottom, hot or cold, red or not red: experience is not binary… it's multidimensional.
