Reflections at Low Tide

'Pure experience' is the name I gave to the immediate flux of life which furnishes the material to our later reflection with its conceptual categories.
~ William James

Taken literally, the phrase “reflections at low tide” is an easy concept to capture:


Without the still, clear waters of low tide, reflections are next to impossible.


Thinking metaphorically, quiet time alone is the necessary and essential “low tide” for proper reflections.


For the time being, I leave you with the literal until I have time to reflect on all that has transpired this week. I am still taking it all in . . .
