not lost! just looking for rocks





The path before me, it looks rough but interesting.   There is always something new to see, something new to do. Not always something I want to do, sometimes something I need to do.
So what I am trying to say is life is complicated, but you knew that.   And as my frequent readers know, if I have a motto it is "to the everyday adventures of life"  which I stole from Jacques Cousteau.  In an interview with David Frost,  when Sir David asked  Cousteau  what he was going to do now that he had retired from much of his ocean research Cousteau said he was going to write poetry.  

Back to the path.  don't think it would be easy to walk on this path, but then is it easy to walk on anyone's path?  I am not so sure we can totally choose our own path,  that would imply that the rest of the world , the rest of humanity, had no effect on  a persons life.  Also it would follow that  ones perceptions as they struggle  or don't struggle along their path would determine if they reach out to others, or lashed out at them.   The reactions of others to their behavior  would  further influence behavior, and, and, and probably galvanize their feelings like if the path one was walking was more or less difficult to walk that the path others were walking on.
Yeah, I really do think about things like that when I am out looking for rocks.

But mostly I think about rocks.  I love rocks.  Always was the kid who came home with pockets filled with rocks,
