Writing a Dissertation is Like Swimming in a Frog Pond

It begins with full immersion. Blub, blub, blub.

Down to the murky depths. Feeling the presence, pressure all around. Submerged and surrounded deeply by one's topic. Sometimes getting tangled in the vegetation. The deep internal sounds of blood coursing in ears. Personal, contained, enveloped.

Then the surface. Splish, splash, ahhh.

Air, sunlight, a breeze. Lily pads floating about like other research ideas. Tidbits of new topics. Adding texture, content, context.
