The year my dad was in hospice I heard him say “wow” more than any other time in my life. In my life, he said that a lot. Thanks for writing and sharing this.

dear matt,

WOW! (which is short for "Wow, Oh Wow!")

great piece!

i'm reminded of a time at an ayahuasca ceremony (were you there for this one?) where this happened:

for folks who have never been to one, or to this one, we were told at the start to generally not speak or move around much (other than to use the restroom or ask for help if need be). at various points during the several hours, the folks in charge speak quietly amongst themselves, and one time they laughed a little bit, at which point one of the participants said "oh, can we talk now?" and the guide said "no." at which point the participant couldn't help but burst out with "I JUST WANT TO SAY WE'RE ALL REALLY POWERFUL BEINGS" (or something to that effect) and it was beautiful.

wow oh wow!

thanks for sharing, bud!

love
