this blog remains a personal record of daily consciousness (thoughts and experiences) that would otherwise have evaporated in the process of the daily whirligig. I, personally, am glad I have ‘saved’ a lot of memories, feelings, ideas, and core beliefs in this long catalogue of present and past. There are, too, notes and observations on the times, basic human experiences as well as personal and family photos, and many examples of my creative work and editing. I thank you again for joining me on this journey and lucky platform that represents me and what I’m about accurately, I think.
