Three Questions, February 10, 2025

You can find the background to The Three Questions in my recent post about it. I’ll be answering the questions each day for the next year and putting this experience into a book. Here we go!

What was the most beautiful thing I encountered today?

The jellyfish room in the Monterey Bay Aquarium

What did I learn today?

That the Catholic priest and missionary Junipero Serra was responsible for a ton of the first reported visits by a European to many places in California including Monterey. The park across from my apartment is named for him.

What made me happy today?

One of my absolute happy places on earth is the Monterey Bay Aquarium, but specifically, the jellyfish room. This morning, getting to the aquarium early, I actually had time at many of jelly exhibits all alone, it was glorious.
