That is really something to ponder. When I got to the bottom of your PS I
thought about the Wheel of Life and how what you described
was something in motion, turning and cycling bringing you back to the same
place each revolution to heal you. I have always wondered
if that was what the Tibetan prayer wheels were all about. A living
reminder of the cyclical nature of life, nothing changes, nothing stays the
same.
