It’s Time For A Change.

  

I've recently started to to write a book. It’s a little bit of
a biography and personal history, but mostly it's about
writing as a passion, a career and a reflection in that
order. I'd been groping around for a long time, trying a
lot of different things to get my head out of the political
cesspool. Right now, I'm pretty sure this is it.

Some of my friends will be relieved to know this. I
have started to feel the weight of the world a bit more
than I should. It's like a great line I heard in a movie
once..."If you go looking for trouble, well, Mister, you will
always find it.’

I don’t know what's wrong with the world and how
things got this crazy. But it's gonna take way more than
the raving of some lefty in his seventies to straighten
it all out, if indeed that is possible. So I have decided
to just enjoy the rest of my life and do something more
useful than shouting into the void.

I'm not going away. Just correcting my course to
steer away frm all the depressing shit going on out
there. I hope I can pull it off. But I have
a big idea to play with and when I'm
working on it, I really do get lost inside it.

Change is good, and in my case,
necessary.
