This is a page I will be adding to from time to time. I haven't made up my mind what to do with this section just yet, I have ideas but they are still a bit vague. Call back occasionally and see what I've got up to. {early Jan '99}
I want to put my thoughts and ideas here, opinions and views of the world generally. Unfortunately when I try to coalesce them into words and structure them they drift away, becoming more and more nebulous. I have always had trouble expressing myself, the more important it is for me to say something the harder it is to speak, sometimes physically. I must say though I am finding much easier to write(type) what I need to. {Jan. '99}
It's a funny thing but to me the more important something is to say the harder it is to say. Sometimes in the past I have almost had a physical blockage in the throat stopping me from saying what I've needed to say, and then of course my mind goes a complete blank. The few times I have been able to say what I want I have been either drunk or doped up on headache tablets, neither method I recommend. I am hoping that doesn't happen here, or if it does my spelling isn't too muddled. {jan '99}
I guess if I am to talk philosophy I should start by telling you what my own is. I thought about it for a while and came to the conclusion that I don't really have one. By that I mean I don't have a rigid one. I feel that having a set idea of what should be is perhaps not a good idea. People need to flexible in their attitudes. You set your attitudes on what you experience and if something new comes along you should be able to incorporate that into your view. Which means of course that you could completely change your outlook without betraying yourself. So where does that leave me! Confused as usual. As an indication I very much like the Desiderata. I find a lot of truth there, for me anyway. {10 Feb. '99}
Actually, what really annoys me is when I think of something I want to write but by the time I get here I have forgotten what it was I had to say, and having lost the thread of my thoughts can't find my way back to where I was. I should just jot it down as I think of it but somehow it doesn't occur to me to do that at the time. Maybe I'm really just too frightened to say what I feel and this is just a way of avoiding it. If I am ever going to see a shrink I'd better be able to get over it. {12 Feb. '99}
