Sometimes, inspiration is hard to find. There are instances when this kind of paradigm seems to flatten out the curves... to smooth those sharp edges and file down the interesting little imperfections that make our individual lives so unique. Which is why the blog world is often so attractive: we can all peek through each others' curtains and find solace, take joy in, and inspiration from the fact that there really are a lot of folks out there who are bucking against the deadening weight of 21st century culture and society. We all want to be treated as individuals, as someone special in our own right, and if we cannot force the institutions out there to do so, well, we'll just have to make it so in our own lives.
Blogs are our way of proving to ourselves and to the world that we really are more than just a set of demographic data on some database. Somehow, this is meant to bring me to talk. Life is what we make out of it. I'm sure that you can follow the connection. It's almost like a simple song: a lovely stop-start beat, mechanical almost, like an industrial process. It is okay to be yourself. it is alright to forge your own path.
I am feeling better now.Ü
