A writer writes

Friday, June 8th, 2007

ChildrenMany well intentioned souls label themselves as actors, novelists, writers, dancers, singers, poets, painters and inventors; and yet nary a scripted word is uttered, nor page published, nor choreographed steps taken. A single note remains unreleased, stanzas stuck in rhyme less amber, canvas lies unsullied, and better mouse traps await their builders.

This is not to discourage dreamers.
Dream and let the dreams urge you forward. Don’t become a label with no substance.

Become the noun and live the verb.

Birthdays and beer

Sunday, June 3rd, 2007

I just survived my 46th birthday.
No, I didn’t go out and get drunk or anything else crazy and irresponsible that middle-age is supposed to entail. I had a very nice dinner at the Rocks restaurant with family.
Saturday I did go out on my own. I had a few beers and a bit of conversation.
I have a holiday coming up soon, and I’m looking to relax.
