Vacation

I've been staying far away from anything intellectual for a few weeks now. Holding any kind of rational or progressive thought at bay; it's like I'm waiting for the right moment. As these words flow I had no intention of writing them as I casually decided to write a post.

Life seems to be like a comet sometimes, circling the universe, leaving a trail of dust and ice. Observing from afar what no one else can see. It zips along at an incomprehensible speed, following a perfect path.

Sometimes I feel as though life is flying by just as fast, but thats the way it is supposed to be. My cliched drink in the moment quote is relevant here. What is important here? Now? What feeds the heart, brain, and soul?

As humans, we are just a dew drop of time, yet we imagine our lives as so much more, as we should. But the thoughts, emotions, relationships must mean something. When I look into my wife's loving eyes, or my childrens' adoring ones I see the meaning. Thats it. Its the connection to others.

How we're bound, yes, that's what gives us significance. Otherwise, what are we? Perhaps there's just a bit more out there though too, a spirit, a connection with the larger world, with nature, with life itself. Not sure, but feeling that way.

Tell all those sets of two eyes hello for me. She's a beautiful spirit in a beautiful form, but then you already knew that.

be well,
erin

You could not stay away from the intellectual if you tried, love. It's just part of who you are.

Numerous web-site designers will be smart to use wireframes in an effort to map out their internet site. This can vary from nearly anything as mapped out simple styles to really map out your design and construction of your own overall website. This will give you a good idea about what you need out of your closing product. [url=http://www.xxxw12woo.info]interggf[/url]
