What are you looking at?

I’m feeling a bit frustrated at the world today

I’m not sure why though. Just finished ready a book by Elizabeth Moon called The Speed of the Dark. And I must say it has moved me. I’m not sure how though. It’s a wonderful story told from a unique point of view that goes deeply into one question, “If I have the opportunity to change the way I think, will I be me after I go through with it?” This question hits me at a very deep level.

Some thoughts

Check out my nature pix in the gallery section. One of the things I love to do when I’m lost in my own mind is to go walking in the park, forest preserve, what have you. Notice something that sparks an interest, and capture that fleeting moment. When I look at them later it makes me embarassed to think I was able to take that picture. I wonder why I was able to capture that moment when everything else in my life is a fleeting memory.

I live for the now, because I never know how much I will remember of what happens today. My wife is very appreciative that I’m always saying I love her, but in the back of my mind I’m saying it so much so that I won’t forget it like everything else in my life.
