Sanity Check

The past weeks have been insane. So insane that I'd rather not blog about them. And so I didn't.

Apart from keeping my work off my private turf, I am also trying to limit the damage that such bitching might do if people read it over here and then carry tales.

There are things I am unhappy about. There are things people do I am unhappy about. I bitch about them in person and I'll leave them as that.

There is more to life outside work. We say it but do we know how to live it? This is a skill many of us sorely lack.

A couple of recent deaths are stark reminders once again of the careless way we live our lives. Again, I believe we should not have to face the inevitable ourselves to wish we had lived differently. In fact, one of them probably had no inkling his life was ending so abruptly; he was all but a 40 year old keep fit guy.

There, I've said it. I'm going to live life! And, how I love ironies, I will persevere in doing it.

Understanding the Images

My new i-Phone 4 has a lotus as a screensaver and the globe as the background (of the active phone).

No prizes for guessing it's a play on "Ah Lian Takes Over the World."

Ok, so anyone wants to take a stab at the symbolism behind this new blog background and layout? :)
