:Where is my left foot?

This morning during a somewhat mentally agitated sitting, I wondered what it would mean to consider oneself without comparison to any external standard, any ideal, any hero. Is it possible?

The stomach gradually settles down under the influence of medication. The absence of coffee, and the substitution of tea has changed my personality. I have also begin growing my hair out after seven years of close-to-a-shaved-head. This has led to the discovery that my thin head of hair wants to stand straight up, even at a significant length, and pomade has been introduced to the mix.
