Beauty and Death


One night in Seattle, we took a hike down to a beach. There was a cliff on one side of the trail, so I cautioned Theo to stay on the inside of the trail instead. "Mom," he replied seriously, "I've got to tell you two things about a cliff. The bad thing is that you might fall off it and die. The good thing is that you get a beautiful view."

Well, yes. Those are both true statements, I suppose.
