Mulling

It’s good, this blogging thing. It means old thoughts are still there when you’ve written new ones & that forces you to constantly reassess. Take ‘Kit‘, for instance. On the surface it flies in the face of why we want to do this in the first place. Supposedly we want to get away from the 100-mile-an-hour must have the next-big-thing life and mellow a bit, yet I still expect a wall-mounted flat screen TV and a wireless internet linked network. On a boat. Well what’s wrong with that, I say. I want to live in this century not the last one, but in a quieter and slower way. I want us to be able to get with our lives in a way that we choose while holding down the jobs that pay for it all, and enjoying what we have with each other. It’s about being able to step out of the race for a while, and pause for breath. Is that too much to ask?
