Change ...

Damn !!! So much has happened and yet so much has stagnated that at times (as i am sure with us all) I am super confident and then again at other times doubting my way.

I have resurrected this blog directly due to Alicia (a good friend) as she enquired about its address and existence and of course whether i still posted blogs and such any more. Alas truth be told i have not thought of it in a very long time and life has kinda overtaken me recently. I am however very proud to announce that i will start again with regular, if not arbitrary (as usual) entries and no doubt a few off the wall comments and ideas.

I so long to write full time and revert back to my art and photography days that at times it seems as if it is a physical pain that i endure.

So my dearest Alicia, i thank you from the bottom of my heart for the enquiry and the spurt that brought this blog back to life. Believe it or not i wish to write 'stuff' that will impress you not to impress but to further kindle a literary side to my life that has been lacking for awhile now. I am too old and too ugly to impress any more but i have over the years learnt that the only person i need impress is myself. This i realize is egotistical but at the end of the day who is it that we want recognition from. I want to look at myself and say 'Damn good job Duncan' and move on to bigger and better things.

What is bigger and better than what i am doing ? well that in itself is a quandary for you see unless you know what the next big thing is, you remain stagnant. To quote a saying a wise friend of mine once said; "How can you change direction if you are not moving" So from that very day forward, several years ago, i have kept moving. Massive life changes took place and admittedly a few have resulted in regrets but Man! have i had fun. I gave up everything i stood for and followed my heart.

I have lived the last few years and am on the brink of the "Next Big One" What does that entail you ask ... well i want to settle down !!! Yup i said it 'settle down'. And as scary as that may sound i am SOOOOO looking forward to it.

But that is all for another days conversation and blog entry ...
