Hello John, Let me first say that I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This leads me to my thoughts that your few words show so much duality. Literal vs. Metaphorical, Guidance vs. Ambiguity, Wordplay vs. Homonyms, Brevity and Impact, and lastly, Thought and Consciousness. In other words, it is very impactful! Autumn Blessings, My Friend, Daniel
