The ox-cart moved too slowly to raise much dust, yet the snail's pace exposed Edward to the unrelenting sun and left his throat as dry as wind-blown sand. Their slow progress bored him, and were it not for the loud screech from each turn of the left wheel, he might…

      PREFACE   I have here used the Australian Grass Tree as background for these 'Pause a Minute' thoughts. There are so many growing on "Tarkarendi", especially in inaccessible places. Each season I watch them and am fascinated by them and the life lessons they can be seen to exemplify. They certainly do not rush in their growing. They have great resilience in their own environment, in good seasons or in bad. When fire attacks, they erupt into…
