The simple things
Once again, sorry for not posting for so long. I don't really know who I am apologizing to when I say that....probably myself. Oh well. I have still been really busy.
I don't really know how to say it, but, lately I have been paying more attention the the small details of everything. I have been almost slowing down, absorbing things more. It is a weird way of putting it, but it's almost like I am taking everything there is to get from something before finishing with it, where as before, I would only absorb half of what is there before moving on the the next thing. For example, I have actually been listening to music, listening to the chords, even (attempting) to play some, if I am feeling adventurous. I have been taking time alone to think, rather than default to the computer or TV. (Although I do that sometimes too!) Now this is going to sound really weird, but even things like playing baseball is different. When I am playing catch with someone, there is some strange satisfaction from the feeling of catching the ball in just the right place in the glove. It's kind of difficult to explain. Again, for example, I was sailing tonight, and there was almost no wind. Normally in this type of situation I would have been bored out my mind, but instead, I took advantage of the situation and used the (relative) quiet time to think over some things.
Wow...it took almost an hour for that relativly short post...

It probably took you that long because you were talking to me at the same time (or more accurately, I was interrupting you!).
Your worldview is slowly changing, Will, and that is wondderful to see!!!! You are also becoming more aware of who you are and also the world around, which is awesome to see as well.

Now you need to have like 50 hour long marathons of discussions about religion, the universe and life. Then you're all set. ;)
