Why could we just be normal

I Ching What a blessing…a miracle…fate? Somehow‚ I Ching made the cut and survived the great book burning of 213 B.C.‚ perpetrated by Ch’in Shih Huang ti‚ the first Chinese emperor.

The trees looked ancient‚ as if they had been there since the dawn of time. The palette was of an eternal fall. The cows
