Each log unfolds like an everyday almanac declaring a vision that struggles with imposed materiality and emotional containment.

If you want creative workers, give them enough time to play. My simple theory of management. And it works!

May - the most beautiful and promising time of year. I suddenly remembered the Mary Shmich speech/column, perfect versioned by Baz Luhrmann.

Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of '99: Wear sunscreen.

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience.

I will dispense this advice now.

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh never mind; you will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they've faded. But trust me, in 20 years you’ll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can’t grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked.

You are not as fat as you imagine.

Don’t worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4:00 pm on some idle Tuesday.

Do one thing everyday that scares you.

Sing.

Don’t be reckless with other people’s hearts; don’t put up with people who are reckless with yours.

Floss.

Don’t waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you’re ahead; sometimes you’re behind; the race is long, and in the end it’s only with yourself.

Remember compliments you receive; forget the insults. If you succeed in doing this, tell me how.

Keep your old love letters; throw away your old bank statements.

Stretch.

Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you wanna do with your life; the most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives; some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don’t.

Get plenty of calcium.

Be kind to your knees; you’ll miss them when they’re gone.

Maybe you’ll marry -- maybe you won’t. Maybe you’ll have children -- maybe you won’t. Maybe you’ll divorce at 40 -- maybe you’ll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary. Whatever you do, don’t congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either -- your choices are half chance; so are everybody else’s.

Enjoy your body; use it every way you can. Don’t be afraid of it, or what other people think of it. It’s the greatest instrument you’ll ever own.

Dance.

even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.

Read the directions, even if you don’t follow them.

Do not read beauty magazines; they will only make you feel ugly.

Get to know your parents; you never know when they’ll be gone for good. Be nice to your siblings; they're your best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.

Understand that friends come and go, but for the precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography, in lifestyle, because the older you get the more you need the people you knew when you were young.

Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard.

Live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.

Travel.

Accept certain inalienable truths: prices will rise; politicians will philander; you too will get old, and when you do you’ll fantasize that when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble, and children respected their elders.

Respect your elders.

Don’t expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund; maybe you'll have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might run out.

Don’t mess too much with your hair, or by the time you're 40, it will look 85.

Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia: dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts, and recycling it for more than it’s worth.

But trust me on the sunscreen.

I happen to feel that the degree of a person's intelligence is directly reflected by the number of conflicting attitudes she can bring to bear on the same topic.

Change starts when someone sees the next step. It is not made without inconvenience or risks, but if past history was all there was to the game, the richest people would be librarians.

Wish us luck! :)

Not so many years ago there was no simpler or more intelligible notion than that of going on a journey. Travel - movement through space - provided the universal metaphor for change. One of the subtle confusions (perhaps one of the secret terrors) of modern life is that we have lost this refuge. No longer do we move through space as we once did. Nevertheless I look forward to this upcoming journey - then we take Berlin.

The term "globalization" has cemented itself as the preeminent adjective to describe our current socio-economic situation. However, the free trade of goods and currencies to which this term refers is rarely echoed in the movement of the world's human population. In fact, it seems quite the opposite as xenophobia, terrorism, and political tactics have seemingly fortified national borders throughout the globe.

The Citizen Exchange Program proposes a resolution to the highly bureaucratized and political systems of immigration.

Time to revisit the MATRIX

MORPHEUS:
Have you ever had a dream, Neo, that you were so sure was real?

MORPHEUS:
What if you were unable to wake from that dream, Neo? How would you know the difference between the dreamworld and the real world?

Other things may change us, but we start and end with family. You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that actually have answers. :)

Do you have these intense moments
when something is about to happen
and you feel that something
very important is coming up
like a strange coincidence
which isn't really a coincidence
but you can't really say what it is
not without ruining the moment
so you should just let it happen
because today everything comes together in this one coincidence
which you'll look back on, smiling
and sometimes wondering what life would have been like
if it hadn't happened
but not too long, because you'll just be grateful
that it did happen
and that moment is now, at this
very moment
this magical moment when it's
actually going to happen!
... and nothing happens?

It's not new. But it's worth revisiting from time to time: Numa Numa Dance by Gary Brolsma released for the first time in December 2004. Less than three months after the release, it had been viewed more than two million times on the debut website alone.

Organizing is what you do before you do something, so that when you do it, it is not all mixed up.

Exactly what I'm on to, is still unclear. What's certain is that my world is a lot less cohesive than I previously assumed. It is of the utmost importance to stay alert, collect clues and make connections. This is only the beginning. Can I go to sleep now? I'll pretend to.

There are things that music can do that language could never do, that painting can never do, or sculpture. Music is capable of going directly to the source of the mystery. It doesn't have to explain it. It can simply celebrate it.

Thought for 2004 - Does the globalisation of the anti globalisation movement signify that that the anti-globalisation movement has failed?

Tell all the Truth but tell it slant -
Success in Circuit lies
Too bright for our infirm Delight
The Truth's superb surprise
As Lightning to the Children eased
With explanation kind
The Truth must dazzle gradually
Or every man be blind -
Emily Dickinson
