I was watching No Maps For These Territories with William Gibson (thanks to the generous christmas contribution of my brother) and he (William Gibson) attempted to define happiness. He said he estimated that it was a state where you don’t anticipate the future, and you don’t concern yourself with the past, but you live fully in and for the present. Now I think there’s a lot more to happiness than that, but that is a very important element of it. I might ramble about implications and examples, but I’ll let your mind do that for you. Interesting stuff, regardless. And now I will go to bed. Just thought I should put something up for all to chew on.
Christmas was good, by the way. I got Heaven by GF Walker, The Man Who Wasn’t There DVD, the new U2 Dvd, and some lovely pants among other things. I bought a new 80 GB hard-drive for fairly cheap as well as DVDs of the 3rd Season of Babylon 5 (best.series.ever) on Boxing Day. Money well spent for sure!
And tomorrow Brian finally gets his ass in gear and turns 19…so much fun will be had, I do hope.
