Warming to the world

Wednesday 3rd May 2006

Some days just can't go wrong...today started in a rush, one of those times when you never feel properly prepared before you leave the house.

For ther first couple of jobs I bean with a little niggle at some rising complications but the work became easier. Instead of things falling apart they fell into place. I thought I was playing catch up with work but found myself ahead of where I expected to be, by lunchtime...even the weather looked ominous today but the sun's now cracking the flags.

Today is a day to feel good about being alive in a world that holds all hope and keeps your dream alive.

After writing this I'm going to switch off this machine and find an excuse to be outside...it would just be the next step in my quest for freedom, a sense of liberty from duty and responsibility.

Since democracy began it's steady decline (Spring 1977), the parties that held power have not achieved any sense of governance, the meaning of the word has been distorted to suit the needs and incapacities of people and parties seduced by sleazy corporate blessings and attention.

Governance would mean setting a range of tarriffs on power use, for all. Investing in sustainable sources...we're told all about the good of recycling, hmm, why is recycling the least effective way communities can reduce their impact? It's because the real message is 'keep buying and let's pretend there's nothing wrong.'
Reduce how much of a drain your life really is...
Reuse the things you sometimes throw away, things that can be fixed.

The government are responsible for setting the social life cycle, if it wasn't for environmental concen we would probably be pedalling faster towards a diminishing future.
