Whichever way things go from here, today the road forked - and at least from today's perspective (and as far as we can see forward from here) we took the right path. Whether our current bouts of euphoria are the avantgarde of bigger improvements to come, nobody at this point can tell.

The One
As you undoubtedly are aware, today is a nodal point in this path through the big probability tree that we call 'history'.
Whichever way things go from here, today the road forked - and at least from today's perspective (and as far as we can see forward from here) we took the right path. Whether our current bouts of euphoria are the avantgarde of bigger improvements to come, nobody at this point can tell.

As good as it gets
A great many things have happened over the last two years. As always in life, they’ve kept the balance, somewhere between bliss and near-catastrophe.
And while circumstances change, I feel that something has solidified – petrified - in my psyche. I had hoped, years ago, that, as I gained more and more experience with life, this would entail some inner peace, calm and content developing at my very core. Unfortunately, I find that what’s solidified within me is a certain kind of cynicism. This is not the stability I had wished for.
Nevertheless - it’s stability. In working life, in the daily routine. I have come to settle. I would prefer to be more at peace with myself, have a hightened sense of life, take more satisfaction from it – but for the time being this is as good, as it gets.
This blog will see more of me.
