Arrive in my study to hear a tremendous skein of geese flying and honking over the roof. The squirrels are in a frenzy of activity trying to get all the walnuts into the ground, which they will forget, which will sprout and require me to dig them out next summer.

Sadness over my life. I lie down and sleep it away. That I do lie down and sleep it away seems one of the greater gifts.
