Stranger Than Wal-Mart

"Some 138 million Americans shop at Wal-Mart each week, making it perhaps the single most unifying cultural force in the country."

Rhizome Post #1 | Cyane Kramer

In Moments and Images | Alyssa Sanders there is a quick moment about rain that has fallen upon one's shoes.

I had read this post soon after talking in Biology about the qualities water has due to hydrogen bonding, so the scientific aspect had a recent background for me. The ending, with its informal, personal voice, emphasized the change from a scholar's view to a normal person's view. I could relate easily because, yes, I know about qualities of water, but that doesn't change the way it is physically perceived.

When someone reads what I have written I would like to touch their own emotions that are similar to what is being expressed. Without emotion there is no true communication.
