This passage fascinates me.  I think it can be so true in so many compartments of love, life, relationships, of being.  I'm toying with it on a poem I started this morning, but thought I'd toss the words out here for a possible Blender Bump?  I'd love to see how it might bounce when given the chance:<BR>

..."If we ride a train, we seem to move with incredible speed as long as we watch only nearby objects.  But if we direct our attention to prominent features of the landscape, like high mountains, the scenery seems to change very slowly" ....<BR>

Madi~ That is a fascinating quote by Einstein, and the concept of perception's effect on romance as compared to  it's effect on time, movement and speed, will make for a fascinating bump. It will be very interesting to see the various directions the  Blenders' writers go with it.<BR>

I have no time for anything lately, besides work and running around.  I haven't even written since the 14th of August.  I just moved into my new apartment this weekend, and am finally, for the first time in my almost 26 years, am living on my own.<BR>
<BR>
I miss all of you terribly.  I have no computer anymore, or furniture for that matter, and so my time is even more limited than you can imagine for the internet.<BR>
<BR>
I still check e-mail once a week -or so, and my mail at work I try to respond to as soon as I get it.<BR>
<BR>
My birthday is next week, and among the celebrations, which are sure to take there toll, I am sure I will be able to find some inspiration worth writing about.<BR>
<BR>
I start school in two weeks, and will then be working full time during the day, and going to school full time at night, so if you don't hear from me, it's not from lack of interest.<BR>
<BR>
Maybe someday soon I will be able to start reading all of the wonderfull works here again.  Sorry to be so absent.<BR>
<BR>
Later lovebugs---and again, I miss you all!
