The essence of our world

Posted on 2009/10/05 09:31:21 (October 2009).

Hello Everyone,

Trying to rebuild my bit of space. Created new webpages.

One alloted to the family.

One alloted to my own guidelines. Precepts I endeavour to abide by.

One alloted to my “reflections on Ancient Rome”. I do it for my fulfilment, I suppose. It gives me a blissful feeling. I wouldn't mind getting it published, though. One day, perhaps.

Many things are changing here.
The family: 3 kids (3 boys moreover) bring a new dimension. I realise I’m really really really fond of my kids... and my wife (careful there!).
Work: Going freelance.
Myself: I woundn’t say I’m getting wiser. But things are getting clearer in my mind.
My relationship with people is changing too. For the better, I think.

I’ll try not to talk too much about me in my coming entries. At least, I won’t bother you with details and personel problems. The world isn’t just evolving around me...! What interest me of late is to find a way to distill the essence of our world.

Here is a pic (of my second son James) I fancy:

Great work, Sheri! You have "taken the bull by the horns", both in your Precepts and your web-page skills!!

Brinsley's page about mushrooms is, quite frankly, scary!! I don't want to find such alien life-forms in *my* woodland!! (Despite the fact I realise they all have a part to play in Mother Nature's scheme!)

"Family" is a continuing perplexity ... :-))

Hi Nigel.

Thanks for your comment.

The mushroom I think you refer to (the Clathrus archeri) isn't actually fully grown. It opens like a flower.

How's your own "clan"?

They're growing up and becoming "independent" (too early; too young of course) Tim is playing tennis and drums; Isobel is dancing. Joc is thinking of returning to some form of teaching - not sure if this will just be one-to-one tutoring or a class full.

Playing drums? Lucky you! ;-)

Teaching what? Was Joc on leave? Did she stop working to raise the kids?
