Hello World!
Hi! No please! No fanfare – no fireworks – this is an ordinary day, just like any other. But for me, it is momentous. Today marks the beginning of a brand new chapter. I admit I am just a tad daunted by the prospect. It wasn’t so long ago when a daily stream of consciousness was a private ritual, kept firmly under lock and key. Now our diary notes have become global confessions. Welcome to my world of the short attention span – dominated by ‘spin’ – as in doctor, a yarn, a web. Bite size phrases, a few scribbled pencil marks on paper, pared down to the barest essential of meaning to grab our attention before it wanders off – lonely as a cyber cloud. My brother would call such indulgent self-reflection, mere naval-gazing. It may well be a step too far, even one I might live to regret, but feel compelled to do it all the same. But what you ask? Well here goes, enough chat for now….need to sharpen the lead……….
