What a busy day. I tend to prefer a busy day at work; it makes the time fly by.  Of course, it also lends no time to fit in other projects, such as maintaining my blog.  Today I find myself uninspired.  That’s ok though.  Sometimes we need those days when we just do without having time to think.  It helps us appreciate the other times when we can be alone with our thoughts.  It also concerns me that I will lack subject matter to fill up a year’s worth of blogging.  So, with that in mind I ask that if there is ever a subject that you would like to get my twisted perspective on, please contact me and I will be more than happy to include that as blog topic.  After all, it’s those we surround ourselves with that bring in fresh ideas and new perspectives, it those around us that help us think.  That might be one reason why relationships run their course.  If there is no stimulation, what exactly is it that dictates you maintain contact with another person?  If everything was supposed to remain status quo all the time people would never complain about getting in a rut.  Perhaps this is why the old adage that opposites attract rings true.  I already live with myself; I don’t want to live with a clone.  I need friction, tension, something different than myself to keep me interested and moving forward.  I like a good debate, I don’t want my partner to be a “yes man” to all my thoughts and notions. That’s not to say I want extreme violence and turbulence, but I think a little “drama” is healthy.  Here in Arizona one of the ways to cool off in the summer is to go tubing down the Salt River.  For the most part you are strapped to a rubber inner tube for 6 hours floating down a serene river, but there are a few rapids, and those are the exciting part. The bumpy, turbulent part of the ride is the most thrilling.  Until tomorrow, here’s hoping you hit a few rapids during your ride.
