The title of this blog comes from a favorite passage of mine in Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra:
"I am a railing alongside the torrent; whoever is able to grasp me may grasp me! Your crutch, however, I am not."
This quote is strangely appropriate for where I find myself today.
I am in Santa Fe living in a dream world. I don't have to work. I can, for the first time I've allowed myself to, do whatever it is that I want to do.
I choose to write and to begin making moving pictures. Along with these--to keep a balance--I'm working out regularly (and skiing in the winter: Just got my season pass!), studying the art of storytelling, undertaking a little meditation and spiritual exploration, and some hiking with trips around this state to explore.
So this blog is a place for scattered thoughts, for reflections, and for sporadic photos.
Transformation is coming for me in very short order, as I consciously and unconsciously move from this version of myself to something different, something other, something dreamed of, something even perhaps feared a little. Time to become what I want to become, and decide afterwards whether it suits me or not.
I have lots of time on my hands, so I'll probably add to this regularly. Thanks for reading.
