Interesting. We recently traveled to a seaside resort for an event welcoming a new extension to our ever-expanding family. In the late afternoon after the official event some folks had lounged in the hot sun by the main pool complex. When the sun went down all the generations packed in close around the in-ground hot tubs and some still swimming, but this was after they and others had gathered at the connected multi-plex of sports monitors situated over the giant Tiki Bar, all talking their talks at varying volumes including silence because of so many, while down at the hot tubs and pools later so many, so many but not nearly all of the family engrossed in one another within their family relationships, old and budding ... I saw this while fetching things now and then* when anyone said yes, and I looked and realized, out of so many, I was third in line and so close to the oldest one there out of dozens, and so connected to the guests of honor who to me still look children but not as connected as my children, all of whom are wise in their specialities.



* with so many directly connected, one can never rest, you know.

I forgot all about this, so I read it.

That was an e-prime practice, with the sole instance of "to be" near the conclusion. E-prime is more objective.
