Welcome to PhilosFX, the blog that asks, "If your life were a movie, would anyone watch?" We'll combine philosophy and special effects to explore a wide range of subjects. Some call it, "Technicolor Omphaloskepsis." I call it Life: examined, shared, and truly lived.

Cheaper than therapy
I was on my way to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center before sun-up this morning. I had an early appointment. I decided to take the Geo Washington Parkway, because usually traffic moves faster than the beltway and oh-by-the-way, the view across the Potomac to Georgetown is spectacular. Well, I was driving / gawking and suddenly felt compelled to pull over at one of the scenic overlooks. The photo doesn't do the moment justice. A feeling of peace washed over me. It's not as if I haven't seen the sun come up before, but this was special. Cars whizzing by on the Parkway behind me, and the simple, ageless glory of the sunrise before me. A moment of Zen.
