all that Ram Dass hasn't really sunk in, or elevated me, rather. My mountain is definitely analogous, i'm looking through the windows of perception at like, um, a mirror?
I recently learned, through investigation into the source of a pesky abdominal pain, that I have a thing about my uterus which is technically a congenital deformity. A pretty little wall of tissue divides it partially in half. A septate uterus is the most common cause of trouble getting pregnant, early and late-term miscarriages, and premature births. But go in through the vagina, snip snip, watch it unzip - the septum retracts and the uterus has now one single cavity with no annoying, poorly-vascularized flesh obstacles to fetal implantation. Also, I found out this brand of 'deformity' is linked to renal anomalies - I could have only one kidney. While all this could be very "cool cool cool," if what I thought of as my reproductive burden has been lifted by a physical anomaly, would I feel slighted?
