I’m re-reading Sweep of the heart and wanted to ask a question regarding the source of one of the philosophies mentioned in the book- Tessidect’s principle (the one about love). Did the authors invent it, or is it rooted in some real-life philosophy? I like it very much and would like to explore the concept

Thank you
It’s a cold, blustery day in Texas. We have a fire going for the old bulldog, and my Hokkaido milk bread is slowly rising. Today is fresh bread and leftovers dinner. It’s nasty outside, but nice and warm inside, and it’s a cozy, quiet day. I know we haven’t been around much lately. We’re working

Spouses, Votes, and Lounger
A while ago I bought a lounger from Costco. It arrived shrink-wrapped in a largish but not overly huge box. We unwrapped the stuffing, filled the lounger, and placed it in the living room. Overnight the lounger expanded to a rather large size. The animals soon discovered its existence, and now the lounger is a
