Thank you everyone at the Blogora for the opportunity to guest blog here. Like Joe, I'm feeling some uncertainty about contributing "good ideas," but I'm excited to engage in conversation here!

"As Martin Walser puts it, as 'long as something is, it is not, what it will have been. When something is over, one is not anymore the one to whom it happened... Although the past, when it was the present, did not exist, it now imposes itself, as if it had existed in the way in which it imposes itself now'" (Zehfuss 518).
