A Little Bit of This....

...and a whole lot of that.

It becomes clear to me that the more I write this blog, the more I care about things in general--about people, ideas, systems that govern our lives, music, theater....  You name it, and I care a little more about it when I'm having to think about it and write about it.  And it's been interesting to me to see how very different I think about things when I'm not having to write here about them every day.

I find myself easily caring less about the world around me and focusing more on myself.  Interestingly enough, though, I still look; I just find myself less interested in what I happen to see--as though, somehow, the world holds very little of real importance unless I'm thinking about others.

It makes me wonder if writing a blog would be a good exercise for everyone just so that they can see how and why things become, or are, important to them.

That said, here are some fun things I found for you all today.
