It has been awhile. Much like climbing the steps to an old friends house and anticipating the once familiar open arms I turn yet again to you, anonymous internet. It has been quite some time since I posted here and there has been quite some life lived in between these digital entries. A few letters added to the resume. A few more gray hairs. A few less of the brown hairs. A few more pounds. The mornings now feature soreness in new places and old memories recede deeper.
If I have learned anything during this time, I would say that things are never what they seem to be. Our perception of reality is never quite what reality is. Of course, one could say that our perception to reality is our own reality, but that is not true. Facts are not courteous to feelings.
Have you seen that movie "Cast Away"? Rich in metaphors and lean on dialogue. My kind of movie. There is a scene where he has decided to leave the island. A storm comes along and washes away his beloved Wilson. (Good luck getting that out of your head today). At one point, Chuck lays his ores in the water and watches them float away.
Perhaps it is time to let some oars float away and see where the raft floats.
