Hello peoples, since it is (or will shortly be) peoples now, as I am going to let people know that this blog actually exists after I've finished this post. I was waiting until I'd gotten back from Perth to tell people about it, because I didn't want people to be expecting stuff weekly from me when I was in Perth, because I didn't know exactly what was happening. Plus this gave me some time to play around with it a bit.
This one is going to be a bit shorter than I usually do, simply because I'm pressed for time. I could probably come back to it later, but I probably wouldn't be able to put up much more.
Are you familiar with something called Occam's razor? It's not a real, physical razor, it's just an idea. The idea basically says that the best answer is usually the simplest. This seems particularly apt in today's world, with so many complexities and complications. And there is a strange beauty to simplicity, that can't be matched by abundance. Something as simple as a raindrop has stunning beauty, if you can manage to catch it. Or the view from a mountain top. Or a sunflower, with its spirals of seeds. All these simple things have more beauty than money, status or power will ever buy you. Sometimes the simplest things are the best.
Hey Brendan. I find your mind and insights fascinating. And you reveal them all with such openness and honesty. I am certainly going to read your blog!! I'm looking forward to the chance to get to know the literary side of Brendan Raymond
