			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Life is like a boy throwing rocks into a lake.</p>
<p>On one shore of the lake there is a town called Passion and on the other Provision.</p>
<p>The boy was raised in Passion throwing rocks whose ripples lapped the shore.</p>
<p>As he grew he knew, instinctively, he had to move to Provision and as he threw his rocks they lapped its banks.  But he always longed for home.</p>
<p>As long as the echos of the ripples at Provision would last he would go back to Passion.  Then he would return.</p>
<p>As he grew his outrospection inspired him and his experiences strengthened him.</p>
<p>He began to throw larger and larger rocks higher and higher until they hit the middle of the lake &#8211; ripples racing to either shore.</p>
