two friday things

Apologies for not posting over my entire vacation last week - I'll get around to some kind of meaty update soon. As always there's great stuff all around. But for now: today I've been totally grooving on this, as well as the following excerpt from Abraham Maslow's The Farther Reaches of Human Nature:

"The past is active and alive only insofar as it has re-created the person, and has been digested into the present person. It is not or should not be something other than the person, something alien to it. It has now become Person (and has lost its own identity as something different and other), just as past steaks that I have eaten are now me, not steaks. The digested past is different from the undigested past."

Also I think I pulled a muscle in my neck at the Y today. Ouch.
