And so we come again to Christmas. This will be our first trip home for a year and as usual we have a big plan of visiting to undertake. A few special Christmas presents have been bought but most of them will be bought when we get back to the UK as flight baggage is limited and right now the airlines are being very fussy about what we can take.
This all raises a feeling of deja vu, of being here before/again and I find
my self in a philosophical state of mind so, if you feel like skipping the
rest of this drivel click here.
At times in life it's difficult to realize where you are or where you are going. You are so busy seeing to the day to day things that you loose your perspective. The Daily Circle of get up, feed, work, feed, go to bed, is what you focus on because its what you have to do. I've been very stuck in that rut recently, hence my lack of interesting things to say over the last couple of entries. that's my excuse any way. I came here with a plan, an idea to pursue. To set up my own Web consultancy. Unfortunately that plan was thwarted by the dot com crash, so I've ended up teaching English for a living. I'm good at it, I enjoy it, but it was never my life plan. It's just something I fell into, and so I find myself on the daily round with a weekly round and a monthly round and (you guessed it) a yearly round. How many of us do this and never think about it? Hence I find myself contemplating circles, the circle of seasons, the circle of the human year, the circle of ...... everything. Looking for something new, something profound, something enlightening and as I stare out of the window seeking this what do I come up with? A song! An old song going round in a circle in my head. The Theme to the original version of the movie The Thomas Crown Affair, Windmills of Your Mind.............?.
There I told you it was drivel!
