We’re there again. Each year I end up baffled that the year’s end is approaching and there are still so many unfinished projects…
That last year flew by fast. The 42nd. This strangely reminds me of Douglas Adams‘ The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. I guess I’ve reached the answer, without knowing the question too. Took me less than 7,5 Million years though.
Well either time’s speeding up – which I will furiously deny at any cost – or I’m growing old – which I will also furiously deny…
Hmmm… Perhaps focus and time management will do? That’s so old-school. But becoming a necessity too.
What’s the excuse for this year – or so far every year – then?
There’s the family, friends, the job, the house and garden and there’s the projects. The hobby. There’s no point thinking about aging. I am modelling sci-fi stuff after all. I keep doing RPG stuff. Writing fiction. Modding computer games. Playing with the kids on the living room carpet and building sand castles for them on Sweden’s or Germany’s beautiful Baltic beaches…
So the point is: you can’t grow much older or even old with young children rummaging through the house. May there be times when time’s running out, there’s always a time to cherish and to refocus on what’s really important in one’s life. The holyday season is probably one number one such time.
So for all of you, who happen to read these lines: I wish you a very happy (traditional or deviant) holiday season or „Adventszeit“ as we say around here.
Cheers, Mirco.
