Like Newton, I glanced over on my terrace and noticed a tree — but it certainly wasn’t an apple one. And I noticed or observed that the trunk goes into the [wet] ground. And I figure it’s not rotting or decaying or anything. even though it is in ground contact.
Then I am reminded of all this contoversy about ACQ [or whatever that new copper treatment is called] and all the corrosion associated with it. So I’m wondering why the tree trunk — which is made out of wood — and which is in intimate contact with the ground — does not rot nor is it even attacked by termites?

Every human choice bows like a slave in submission to the absolute creative will, yet this does not deprive us of freedom or fear of taking responsibility for what we choose
