A reason; a season; a lifetime

“People come into your life for either a reason, a season, or a lifetime”.
A friend of mine told me that. It came up because I have a habit of falling out of contact with people, and I will go for long periods of time without reaching out to people that I am close to. So [...]

Am I doing any of this right?

I often wonder if I doing anything right. I don’t mean individual things like ironing a work shirt, or my tax returns, I’m talking about the whole life thing. I see people that really seem to be inherently better at it than others. By this I mean they seem to make decisions that improve their [...]

What are your 30s for anyway?

I’ve been sitting here in front of the computer after a quiet choof wondering, just what the hell it’s all about. I don’t actually mean life - god that’s just too big right now - I just mean our 30’s. What’s our 30’s actually for?

The events over the last two days have really shown shown me something about myself that I was aware of, but I didn’t openly admit because I was afraid of what that might mean. And that is that I am clinging on to memories of my past and much of the pain associated with it, [...]

Then and now and then again.

So I’ve just finished watching St Elmo’s Fire on divx, something like 18 odd years after seeing it at a friends house on video (which is just soooo 80’s in itself). Back then I was but a wee lad in my late teens and the oh-so grown up lives of the characters in their very [...]

Changes

You know I always had this thought when I was younger, in my twenties, that when I was my age now, that my life would be more static, more predictable. I’m not really sure why, perhaps because I thought I would have kids by now to some women in a meaningful relationship. That I would [...]
