On the point of "beginnings", I have often felt this to be so -- I always prefer the beginning of a novel; the beginning of a movie; the beginning of a theatrical performance... the beginning of any and every story. There is something so fresh and new and clear about beginning a thing. Once there begin to be complications, changes and uncertainties, I always find that I would prefer to go back to the beginning. I suppose that is very much human nature, but it has always been quite true in my Life, and, as I watch many of my grandparents' generation pass into Heaven, I still find myself longing for my own beginnings in this life.

"...to include a trip to the principal’s office on a charge of McCarthyism."
You MUST tell us this story!
Twas after the summer I spent on a farm in Iceland, mucking out the cow barn and reading "The Gulag Archipelago."
And how did that lead to you getting cross-wise in school?
It made me aware of the "champagne socialism" peddled by my history teacher.
If you cannot find anything original to say of your own, at least give credit to those that did.
Reminds me of that quote:
Pablo Picasso:
Good artists copy; great artists steal.
Well heard!
