I've been so caught up in the exhilaration which accompanies learning, inhabiting, gaining a novel perspective, that I've been naively identifying myself w/ them. Tranquility will result from something wholly different (?), but what?

From listening to mostly audiobooks to mostly podcasts has resulted in quite a drop in substantive learning/retention. Made the switch back and am happier/more productive for it.
