Our lives are pregnant with insignificance.   Things like--pecker gnats and Chihuahuas, fake bronze menorahs,  white t-shirts, and plastic daffodils.  Good Mental health demands we balance life’s  trivial with significant concerns, such as--cost-free drugs to feel less bad, dealing with suicidal people who find homicide intriguing, predicting a python’s hunger pangs and the why, of Saturn’s four rings;  the wise know the difference.

Our lives are pregnant with insignificance.   Things like--pecker gnats and Chihuahuas, fake bronze menorahs,  white t-shirts, and plastic daffodils.  Good Mental health demands we balance life’s  trivial with significant concerns, such as--cost-free drugs to feel less bad, dealing with suicidal people who find homicide intriguing, predicting a python’s hunger pangs and the why, of Saturn’s four rings;  the wise know the difference.
