Thanks Johan.
Psalms 90:10
I'm not planning on flying anywhere at the moment --- except may to Blitar next March to do a photo cover of Panataran. But I am at the point where I can positively count the time left on my fingers and toes --- maybe. That's not long. It took me half that time to read and understand Pigeaud's "Java in the 14th. Century". More than double that time to get a reasonable understanding of the Javanese language. My problem is I'm a slow learner, so I need more time than most people to get a thorough understanding of anything.
Understandings come easy, but thorough understandings are very, very draining.
Three score & ten is the blink of the eye, and it is already a sextet of summer solstices behind me.
