Yes! Finally, I'm blogging, yah man! Read an interesting article from a link on twitter - yah man, I'm on Twitter too - about getting sh**t done and you know what I've got to kick myself in the shin and get these things off my to do list. So at least I'm up and running now, just need to spruce up the profiles which I plan to do when I'm not working over the holidays and then I'm in business.
This has been a life long dream of mine, to write. Now I can get these musings - beautiful pontifications I create in my head while in the car, and never get in on paper, or er, on the computer. So I've decided to call my blogg the "The Daily Musings of MissSam" as Miss Sam is my childhood nickname, which I am very fond of now. When I go home to Jamaica, yes, Jamaica is always home, even though I've lived in Canada more years than I have there, only the old village folks call me Miss Sam and it feels so special. I have an active mind and I am interested in politics, religion and social issues. I am very keenly interested in the science of human behavour and the integration of science and spirituality and religion. Now these topics make for very spirited discussions, especially if there's the other kind of spirit involved. But to me this is what make life interesting, after all life would be rather dull if everybody was the same and believe the same things the same way. Can you imagine a world like that? I cant - we would be just like the cows or sheep, wouldnt we?
So for a Friday I lingered at the office. Decided to play another round of the Lumosity games and of course one of my very favourite is the Penguin Pursuit which is a speed game and I just love to get to that fish before the Game Penguin! Couldnt believe my reaction when I first observed myself being all smug and shouting yes, yes, when I got the fish first. So then, there - I'm still competitive, it was dormant for a while, and is being revived quite easily it seems. This brain stuff just tickle me, totally fascinating. Anyway, it's almost 8:30pm and everyone left, I'm pulling out of the parking lot and wondered, why in the world I lingered at the office playing Lumosity games on a Friday evening, then I remembered my Friday night boyfriend - Bill Mahar - is off till January and I'm a bit out of sync till I find some other activity to fill the gap. Last Friday I invited a friend from the office to go to the movies with me. I wanted to see Lincoln but I wasnt showing at the Cinema we chose so we watched Flight, with my former hearthrob Denzil. I liked Flight, it was riviting, but revisiting of the themes from the 7's like Hotel, Airplane etc. Thought of going seeing Lincoln after I left the office but visions of myself comfortably bundled up on the couch got me rushing home.
So on my way home this song was playing which totally reminded me of how awesome Bob Marley was. Most of his songs were so deep, I would even venture to say some of them were downright prophetic. Just love pumping up the music and singing along when doing house chores.
So that's all
MissSam
