Podcast 1_24 - A Moment's Miracle
In "A Moment's Miracle," I read a poem by Whitman that captures the essence of how we should approach each moment.

This podcast both examines and inspires a certain approach towards life that is based both on personal philosophies and on, more importantly, the writings of people such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau. The host, while working in technology for a major corporation, holds a Master's in English Literature and is a true Romantic.

Hey, i couldn't find the podcast you did about in-animate objects being "alive" to you, so i decided to just write here. When i heard that podcast i was inspired, because i felt the exact same way, and i didn't think it was, right i guess you could say. But hearing someone else express their ideas and thoughts to which i could closely relate, somewhat comforted me. I really love the show because i am curios about philosophy and the history of it. Questioning life, and reality. I also am a fan of nature, i fly fish and every time i go, i bring this podcast with me on my ipod. I haven't had the chance to study philosophy yet becuase i am only in grade 10, but as soon as i get the chance im going for it. Thanks again and keep it coming.
That was one of the best posts I've ever gotten, thank you! It wasn't just the fact that you were giving me a complement; what struck me the most is that you're a tenth grader going out fly fishing with my podcast. I feel very honored to be a part of your experience in that way.
The episode you're talking about is, I believe, 1_17, Everything is Alive. I'm glad you identify with that. I think it's extremely healthy to hold on to that as long as possible... for it's a courageous and brave act to believe in something that the world tries to beat out of us.
