....is something that I can only describe as a mind fuck. There is no other way to tell you what it does to me. Life goes so fast when you pass a certain point, I think somewhere after 25, that the next thing you realise is that you are now where your parents were when you were a kid. That’s the thing that gets me; the fact that life moves like a conveyer belt. I just can’t get my head around it. I see myself in my career and my interactions with my staff and realise that I am where my boss was when I started out in this industry. I don't go to clubs anymore because I am the person that I laughed at when I was drunk, high and bouncing off the walls. Damn, I was cool. One day I will be where my grandfather was when I was in my teens. Yet all the time I don’t feel that progression in my head. In 5 years time I am going to be 40 and the closer I get to it, the more I realise how young it really is. So is 60, and 70. I often wonder if the difference between me and many of my friends is that they have children and maybe that is what changes your focus. I’m sure it is. So how then, do I, as a childless person (which may or may not change) deal with the fact that I am no longer one. I guess it's not a bad thing to wonder about. I'll let you know if I find any answers. In the meantime, I 'll surf the timeline.....hopefully for a while.
