The word "Essay" comes from the French, "Essai" which means a "try" or an "attempt". The "attempts" contained in this collection are random tries at capturing a moment, an observation or an elusive thought. They're meant to be read individually and not as one single, beautifully flowing narrative. They're offered as they came to me, sometimes suddenly and sometimes over a number of years. I've tried to capture ideas and to demonstrate a remarkable phenomenon: That what is obvious to some is big news to everybody else.
