Through the Trees

I: The birdsong is more pervasive this year. More penetrating. I don't know if this reflects an external or internal change.

II: I am walking in Discovery Park. At every bench I encounter, I stop to read a little bit of The Timeless Way of Building by Christopher Alexander. I also jot down any stray thought.

Trees

III: Am I a programmer that likes walks or a walker that sometimes programs?

IV: Work agitates the pond. Stirs up the mud. This lets it settle.

V: I didn't touch grass. I prefer looking up through the trees.

VI: The difference between being an adult and being a child is whether anyone will shout "that's far enough."

On the way home, I listened to my new summer jam playlist.
