Amazing swim in the lake today. 20 degrees C in the water, a lovely contrast to the 13C and windy air temp. Nice to focus on something other than the disintegrating reality that is infecting my life. But, apart from that there is nothing to report. Oh, there is one more thing, everything is working … Continue reading There is at least that

When The Doors Of Perception Are Cleansed…
This is some trip I'm on, you think something weird has happened to you?

They would like to see things move away from extreme consumerism. As usual, I didn't bother to do any research, and didn't … Continue reading Levelling

There is magic going on and the creation of wonders that You would marvel at if you were here now. With that damned curiosity you infected me, cursed me to ask why, And … Continue reading What a Time
