On maintaining

 First, it might not have been the very first time, but I recall this time better than the past. Or perhaps I understood what my universe meant to the doctor at that time. “You’re maintaining.”, the doctor says.

Maintaining is what you are when your doctor says so.  I am not complaining, I am maintaining. What a joy!

Maintaining is what you are when your choices are risk adjusted in the face of present knowledge and modeling. Present knowledge can be divisive, the modeling too. One group can know one thing to be and another group a different one. The maintenance of state to permit a common good can look rosy or bleak. 

When I was a younger man there was cosmetic dentistry now there is legacy dentistry.  At least I still got some dentistry in my life!
