Healing for Cathy & Harper.

 

True?

“The juvenile sea squirt wanders through the sea searching for a suitable rock or hunk of coral to cling to and make its home for life. For this task, it has a rudimentary nervous system. When it finds its spot and takes root, it doesn't need its brain anymore, so it eats it. It's rather like getting tenure.”

• Daniel Dennett, philosopher, writer, and professor

 

 

Healing for Beth.
 

 

See you Sunday.
