see
here,
this brief collection of words is the second rendering of the original blog post. i tempted
the fates by going into uncharted territories to a little
musical interlude to give my words some ambience. however, in the process the
post
was
obliterated. i've resurrected it, in a manner of speaking. the same but very different. enjoy the bit of music. the link is at the end. the musician is aaron cadwaladr a local
vancouver artist with
a smooth voice who pens a lovely tune and knows his way around a guitar–at least to my
unschooled ears. he's on facebook if you want to take another look in that realm. he might even come your way some day.
so it
goes. maybe it was a sign that i was waxing a little too philosophical.
the fates decided that it was better left unsaid. maybe.i
was banging on yet again at how i had assembled bits and pieces of blog
posts but had neglected to actually post them. you see, i am not so
busy to preclude it, i just don't. bad habit of mine. in the new decade
i am going to employ more follow through.it's important. i do it in
other aspects of my life, but not the ones that mean more to me, and my
blog does. i was reading o magazine and some sage advice is to start
networking
which is hardly a revolutionary idea, but in the cyberdomain you can
give yourself a little edge; at least so the short bit reads. the only problem with the assertion is that a blog is
hardly a baseball diamond in a cornfield; build it and they will come.
i've had my little bit of generalist prose here for some time and it
hasn't exactly landed me my dream job. my friends read sometimes. i get the odd lost person browsing through, but mostly it is more for my benefit. for the exercise, the discipline, which has been sorely lacking of late. one never knows. perhaps it will net me something interesting yet. i'll keep banging on and hope for the best. 2009 was easily the worst year on record in my adult life. there's nowhere to go but up.
