The time has come for change. For one, I am cleaning up the blog. While I do have a strange outlook on some things, I realize that it is because the people that were around me at the time left me rather jaded in thought. I tended to put everything into these neat little boxes of my mind and I would compartmentalize them so that if someone or something did not make sense to me, they ended up there–my virtual “cornfield”.
Either way, it is time to change my attitude, my life and possibly (after the grandson comes) the latitude. I can no longer hide here. I am going to branch out. I’m getting back to the writing basics again…My family matters. My grand kids matter. This crap about holing up and only talking to a few select people is over.
If I get stuck, I go back to Lauren Vasil’s blog, www.fizgiggery.com for some inspiration…Or to Momsicle’s blog…Given the recent post on the little blue dot in Lauren’s blog, I decided that although we’ll probably never see space travel in our lifetime, it would be nice to be able to see places like this from a ship!
It looks almost like something you’d see in a video game or in sci-fi doesn’t it? It’s actually a view of the Carina Nebula from the hubble telescope. I really do consider space to be the “Ultimate Wonder”. It is infinite and timeless.
However since time tends to be somewhat of an enemy, it is best to concentrate on things that I would like to see here–like the world we live on. Maybe someday I will get to do that. The thought crosses my mind every time I look at my poster that I made. I’ll put it up here on my next post, but I really want to position myself better than where I am now. I want to be an inspiration to my grand kids–and to teach them that there is much more to the world than what is right in front of them. I hope that makes sense to you. It does to me. It may be time to simply go forth and expand my horizons. Have a great week!
