WGHY November 30, 2025

November has been brought to a close. Do your sums, check your work, close the books. I don’t recall that I got out on the motorcycle this month; in recent years there has been a day of warmth on or around Thanksgiving that provided one last ride.

• The temperatures continue to steadily drop. It’s as if nature was doing its thing on its own, the way it should, and everything is running smoothly

• Some sunshine against a dark sky. I look out my window and see that even now, as I saw it yesterday- long morning shadows and beyond them, across and over and barely visible atop the trees, the dark sky to the west

• To the gym! The running was great and the jumping rope was not; I couldn’t get a rhythm. That said, my box jumping for vertical leap was effortless

• As my wife was explaining flower essences to someone at the gym, it dawned on me that they are symbolic as well

• Symbols, ideals, will

• More and more is revealed about the golf swing as I learn to whip and swish a driver shaft (without the head), helping me get the right “throw angle” and whipping/accelerating it after the point of contact with the ball: hit through the ball
