Moksha's Eyes

How did the cataract surgery go, Moksha?

It went wonderfully. Having vision restored in both eyes, I can now see into the past as well as the future. Did you know it's the anniversary of my birthday today? What a moist experience that was.

It was blurry at first. I think it took longer for my eyes to undialate than normal, but it is getting better. The one thing everyone who had cataract surgery notices is how much brighter everything looks. Good stuff. Ever since my right eye surgery last year, I have not used reading glasses while sitting in front of the computer screen. Hopefully, reading will be even easier now.

Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.

Jokey impersonation aside... every surgery carries some risk, so it's good to hear that everything is going well. May you find more joy in your increased spatial resolution.

I'm glad it went well, Moksha.
There are 2 Gods. One who created us. The other you created. The God you made up is just like you-thrives on flattery-makes you live in fear.

Believe in the God who created us. And the God you created should be abolished.

Only one little hitch. Now Moksha sees dead people.
