JDS Insights: December 2012

And there I was. Looking back and another year passed. It started so optimistically. And ended…well not un-optimistically. Just tired. Commitment ended. And space began to emerge. No doubt something will fill it. I also got to experience some live music – on a local level – at a venue I played when I wasContinueContinue reading “JDS Insights: December 2012”

The Beginning is the End is the Beginning 3 of 3: 2012: Clearing and Clarity

Direction: Coming from and Going To* This part three of three. Parts One and Two deal with what happened last year. Yeah yeah ok…So this post was *meant* to have been completed aaaages ago. For some reason, for the past few years this post is delayed by a few months. I’ve been trying to ‘get it right’ and chooseContinueContinue reading “The Beginning is the End is the Beginning 3 of 3: 2012: Clearing and Clarity”

The Beginning Is the End Is the Beginning 1 of 3: 2011

Another Year Ends Reality becomes a reflection of reality becoming real…or some such stuff. This time of year enables me to look back and forward at the same time. Last month was particularly reflective for me anyway but the purpose of writing this is to shed the skin of 2011. I’ve also been doing thisContinueContinue reading “The Beginning Is the End Is the Beginning 1 of 3: 2011”

Out Through The In Door: 2010/ 2011

Ah yes. This post is loooooooooong overdue. We’re already part way through the second quarter of 2010! Anyways another year has passed into the ether and I might as well compete my musing and reflecting. This is becoming a running theme. I think it’s part of of the reflective process; taking stock and thinking allowsContinueContinue reading “Out Through The In Door: 2010/ 2011”

From the Shinings of my Reflections: 2010

This post has grown from my Reflections on 2009. After reflecting it makes sense to look forward and create. I’m enjoying doing this. First there was the Sign “☮” the Times in 2008, then there was Flash-Back, Flash-Forward in 2009 so here are some things that 2010 will be for me.* Now I’m not necessarilyContinueContinue reading “From the Shinings of my Reflections: 2010”

Thoughts From 2008

This is a review of my year. It’s another opportunity to be wonderfully self-centred. Hah!On a more serious level, it’s a chance for me to acknowledge what’s happened before I start to think about what 2009 is going to be about for me. I had three themes I was focusing on throughout 2008 which willContinueContinue reading “Thoughts From 2008”

Sign "☮" the Times: 2007/ 08

New year makes everyone a bit more reflective. Not that I’m any different – I too look to how the last year went, and what the next year could hold. I’m not too enamoured with the idea of New Year’s Resolutions though…I mean every moment is another opportunity to turn something around…a new second/ minute/ContinueContinue reading “Sign "☮" the Times: 2007/ 08”
