8

It is hard to believe, but I have been writing this blog for almost 8 years. I occasionally re-read older posts, and it is very basic stuff, but it also reminds me what great times I'd had. And I realize that it has been a pretty sweet life. The things I wrote, say, in 2008, are pretty basic, but I can now sense an important and maybe not very happy development. I used to be able to give in to the happening, sort of feel it on a very basic unmediated level. Today, it seems, all that is going on with me is subject to a bright and unfriendly light, like in a hospital, which makes it that much more difficult to be happy or excited about things.  Although I will probably be thinking the same thought 5 years later.
