Change is inevitable. Growth is optional. ~ John C. Maxwell
About six weeks ago the faeries came and spirited the old me away to leave someone else in my place. Or, someone cracked my skull and in the maul and bruising of my brain the delicate electrical circuits got scrambled and rearranged. Whatever happened I had no choice in the matter. It was not up to me to decide what kind of person I would be when I came to again. I am not the same man I used to be long ago in January. Some changes are probably good; I believe I’m kinder, more tolerant, more accepting and understanding, less judgmental. Some things I’m mostly indifferent about, such as being disinterested in manly pursuits like booze, gambling, sports, pornography, and appearing macho. And, some changes forced on me I see as downsides; being fragile, vulnerable, sensitive, empathetic, intuitive, and sociable. Then there’s the real crap stuff; constant headaches, struggling to put spoken sentences together, word blindness, paranoia, and disassociation. Or it could be that this is normality and all that went before is naught but a fevered dream.
The secret of change is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old, but on building the new. ~ Socrates

Hi Jack It’s a me. Long time no… I am making an attempt to come back to Earth again as well. It seems to me that people are getting so much more confused than they ever were before. Is there anyone with as much sense as Socrates? I blame the information overload. Modern humans have to remember far more names and facts than they ever did before and this has eaten into the reasoning part of their brains. Now there are many people that cannot reason as well as a squirrel in autumn. Logic aught to be taught in schools.. I think you said something about growth. As you know I think that this has to go. The planet is not getting bigger fast enough to allow even a tiny rise in GNP
