small miracles

I am not particularly happy today, grumpy at too much People and an achy body.

But this morning I noticed a white moth on one of the silk cocoons I got in Ramnagar, and then I realised that the moth had come out of the cocoon. And another of the cocoons was rocking as its moth pushed its way out. I hadn't really believed that they would hatch.

I sat and watched them for half and hour this morning, in between reading my pirated copy of A Brief History of Time (which is made a more challenging read by numerous mispellings or swapped words - something that I find inexplicably endearing).
