Should all passengers be required to wear parachutes? (for flights higher than 10000 feet)?
At sea everyone except good swimmers need to have life vests. Since no one is a good flyer maybe everyone could wear a slimline parachute. If an accident is about to happen just jump out and float gently to the ground.
2 AnswersHomework Help2 years agoShould carpenters be contracted for amputations in hospitals to free up doctors for more important work?
Carpenters would do a neater job sawing and then maybe get a seamstress in to do stitches. Neat work and Doctor gets to do doctor work.
2 AnswersMedicine2 years agoA poem I wrote about Love?
The lover seen
Seen, not discovered
The timeless game
Not imagined, conjured, invented...
But oh....searched for yet
Through every ruse,
Through every play and poem.
Futility following a smiling call
Till weary and worn all secret abodes
Found wanting and empty
Yet it always was...
Yearning fueled
A hazy dream of homecoming
A whisper in the gentle breeze
A sparkling light from a shimmering leaf
The reminding emptiness
Behind the crashing surf
And the mocking screech of gulls
Always was
Hidden from these earthly senses
But dancing in my heart.
But oh... at last!
When gods and dreams and mystical paths
Faded with the mist
When nothing but life remained
Beyond these sorry endings
Beyond these subtle deaths
Oh i drank the eternal essence
And laughed the madman's laugh
A drunken lover
Pure and always was, behind, within, without
The imagined toiled walls
Tears and laughter - this simple play
Only love remained....
She came then
My earthly love divine
She was always there
Before the birth of a thousand worlds
She was there
No words, no image, no thing,
In Truth and love she came
Our essence shared but always so...
Sweetly gifted
Life to life
Love to love
Always essence shared.
And in this sharing
Lives the Knowing
And the Knowing lives in life.
She's in my arms...
But who now loves but love herself?
Who now lives but life?
Sunrise stillness in beauty seen
Experienced not found.
And who may separate the river from sea?
Once joined we are,
We always were.
Love knows
Not we.
