continuing the theme

of going around in never ending circles
.
I bring you the snake who swallowed his own tail. . .
and the stellar version and the wearable one

all of a sudden, I'm feeling very old

which I'm not, only being 45 and all

but when one of your parents (the one you liked) died at the age of 55 after a couple of years of, it turned out, untreatable illness, sometimes you do wonder. . .
.

. . .on the other hand, there was no point going thru what I experienced last year only to then have it all come to an unexpected halt
.

which leaves me contemplating matters that I usually try to avoid - things more than a few days out into the future
.

which is progress, of sorts, I mean for a long time I wasn't able to think about the next hour - let alone the next day
.

taking the ages of my grandparents into consideration, there is a chance I might live another 37 years - almost a whole other lifetime
.

or perhaps I'll be run over by a bus tomorrow

but whatever becomes of me, I need to start thinking about not just tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, but a little further into the future
.
that scares me
.
time for the liquorice allsorts

(yes, I saw them when I was looking in the "L"s
for the London bus. . .) (thanks goodness!)

can men and women ever be friends?

you may recall a small dilemma I was experiencing a while ago. . .

or, on the other hand, you may not. . .

(it's only a blog, after all - silly to get things out of perspective, eh)

. . .you'll be pleased to know that the situation has resolved itself: my friendship has been chucked (by email, no less)! oh well, saved me the bother, I suppose

so, what do we think, lovely people,
can men and women ever ("just") be friends?

Humble and helpless and learning to pray
Praying for visions to show me the way

Show me the way to forgive you
Allow me to let it go

Allow me to be forgiven
Show me the way to let go

Show me the way to forgive you
Allow me to let it go, allow me to be forgiven

And show me the way to let go
Illuminate me, illuminate me, illuminate me

I'm just praying for you to show me where to begin
Hoping to, hoping to reconnect to you

THOMAS - PERFECT CIRCLE

where does a journey on the www take you?

perhaps it depends where you start from. . .

. . .I started here:

(my morning)

and travelled via these guys. . .

to here:

then here:

(which I found here)

which I was led to by this:

which by pure coincidence I started reading the other day

(that's enough whiches)
(and yes, I am still refusing to see the film of TTTW)
(I'm in good company - Audrey N hasn't either)
