Leaving Chris World?

Why not bring back a souvenir?

State of Limbo

The Cusp of a Challenge

It's easy to become disillusioned at the challenges that the next 20 years will bring. I know there is a lot of room to fall. But there is also a lot of room to grow. And a lot of opportunity for success. I enjoy standing on the cusp of this great game.
I know I'll be playing. Will you?

...

Turning now to more Earth bound sensations.... I find myself in a reluctant state of limbo. Trapped between motivations for rest and for work. What is the correct course of action for such times? Is it to brush off the haze of laze and continue forth believe that eventually something will click and in the moment of inspiration my mind will once again awaken? Is it to give in to the mental sloth like ways of the doldrums of life. Surely, there must be a reason for feeling this way or else why would I be floundering about so much lately? What could my subconscious be telling me in order to reign in the productive soul and make it feel entrapped?

Rivers aren't molded out of cast iron and creative flowing thought driven people aren't grown by weekly predictable maneuvers. No matter the topic so long as the task is expected from one's self or by others it becomes a death march for creative genius. Or... does it?

It can be a healthy experience to have some sort of monotonous challenge thrust my way. Perhaps, this haze is the rebelling aspects of my creativity trying to fight back against expectation. Regardless, I decided to type before doing anything else.

And now for the else.

A 5.4% decrease with total hours reaching 18.96
at a 9.07 hour drop. So that's what happens when I take
a day off? Or perhaps there was more than one. Perhaps,
my true work efficiency floats between 75% and 85% and I just
happen to need the rest of the hours to stay sane.

There are a lot of Bizarre games
that go with that hardware. Reminds
me of a certain episode of Star Trek.

"Trapped between motivations for rest and for work."
No subject given you say? It flows does it not?
Need I utter "I'm trapped" ? Or is it best
to leave it open. What's trapped? Conscious?
Sense of achievement? Is it really me anyway?
Or does the reader need more
room to be more imaginative?
Consider it, you grammar people. ;)

  • Hi Chris,

    how are you doing? How is Arcata? I am back in Germany, working and studying. Life is well! Hope you can remember me. I had classes with you Dixon and Dr. Stoob in Spring 2007.
    The place, where you have been, with the train tracks. Once I was with a friend there…and it was a nice sunny day too! :)
    Did you do the drawings up there on this page with the powerline birds? What kind of colors and pens are you using?

    Lovely greetings from Bremen/Germany,
    Jane :)
