We, the Human Race, are born of a selfish breeding. We care not about the past or the future. We only care about our now — and that’s bad for the business of the world. Today is Earth Day, and I wonder if we should change the name to “Us
Day” in order to get broader, and more dedicated, involvement in the
scheme.
I am very pleased to announce that after only a mere eight years in development, the novella Kate is available for purchase on the Kindle. The process has been rather long and difficult but well worth it.
If our moral duty is to help prepare our children to live in the future without us — how are we able to sustain that teaching without a place in that world?
If you live in the United States, and if you are registered to vote — we urge you to stand in line all day if you have to, and cast a vote for Barack Obama — to win back what was lost.
It is human nature to press ahead and chase what we can never catch. For all of human existence we have been obsessed with the horizon and what riches and wonders wait for us just beyond the ken of its bend.
I think I can pinpoint the moment the madness began. It was about six or seven years ago in my mother’s family room, and I was watching an episode of Ally McBeal. It was the episode where Ally was freaking out because she was turning thirty and she was really upset because she felt like she hadn’t accomplished a lot of the goals she had set for herself at that age.
The other day I read an article discussing how, when architecture students are asked to design a “City of the Future,” they always draw round structures.
It seems having corners is “too old fashioned” and not “forward thinking” enough.
That design flaw — that only Round is good — is a stereotype that has been embedded in the young designers by popular culture and not by appropriate future need.
