And then there are good things in this world!

 

These cheerful beings came up in Facebook on the day my front tooth was broken off, by eating french fries no less. But the next day I bravely went with friends for another birthday lunch, and enjoyed myself if my smiles were a bit like the lady in front...mouth closed! More pretty flowers. An appointment on Sept. 8 to see my favorite dentist. No matter what happens in my mouth, she's very upbeat and a pleasure to have her giggle while drilling if necessary.

Today's quote:

The gift, and the curse, of the scientific mind is to know that every time we presume to see the whole of something, the plane of reality will tilt to reveal new mysteries  — and when reality does that tilt, we’re always “staggered with the sudden sense that we had been looking at only a fragment. The history of our species is the history of learning and forgetting and relearning this elemental truth.”  Maria Popova, author, editor of The Marginalian Newsletter
