nothing is something…

nothing from something...


Nothing is still something… it’s just easier to carry.  I agree with the great Billy Preston to a point.

I still say nothing is something.  If you have nothing, you can still be with me.

I can be self centered.  I can also be self off-centered.  I can also put myself in the center of the universe…but just for the view.  As much as I’d like to go up in space, eventually you have to come down.  If you stay up there to long, there might not even be a place to go back to.

evenly split personality

evenly split personality


This is familiar territory for me.  A split personality is pretty normal.  We all have to be different characters for different situations.  Problems come about when one piece of the split is bigger than any of the others.  It’s okay to be a different part of the pie, just so long as all the pieces fit back into the pan.

it happens…

it has to happen sometimes

When it happens, it happens. Prediction is nothing more that guessing with a bit of an ego. You run through the information and past experiences you’ve experienced, check out what’s in front of you and figure out what might happen based on everything behind you.  Depending on the information, you stand a decent chance of being accurate.

If you pay more attention to the information you gather the better off you’ll be.

Don’t look for the label

looking for the label


That which is really great doesn’t have to advertise.  No labels are needed, no commentary, no infomercial.  If it’s great, it’s great.  If you beat into my brain how unbelievable something is, I’m less likely to believe.

But that’s just me.  And, I’m probably wrong… but I won’t label it.

Of course, labels for poison are fine.  That kind is a good thing.  A very good thing.

Exercising Responsibility

responsibility and bob the squirrel


Responsibility scares the fur off my tail.  I’m confident that years could be wasted delving into this deep topic, but we’re not going to do that.  To be held accountable for something you don’t know the outcome to is… well… scary.  The more I say I need to stop running from it, the more I want to be able to fly.

Eventually, you can’t run, walk, crawl or ooze away from responsibility.  It locks you in a windowless room and forces you to deal with it.

I never said I was here to deliver an uplifting message.  I’m here to deliver the truth.

I will do that as soon as I stop running.

relevance and bob

relevance and bob the squirrel


What is relevance?  Applicability to the times that you are within.  A product of the era you live in. Archetype characters throughout history have been altered by the time era to suit that era.  Batman, Superman, Dracula…they all have a place in the time they were created but were also altered to live beyond that time.  I like that idea… I really do.

Just not for me. I say that because, I don’t think I was ever relevant… but I’m far, far, far from being irrelevant.  Bob the Squirrel is somewhere in between all that.  I am of a time, and yet, I’m timeless.

Happy Monday gang!
