Motive Force, Idleness Threshold and Relapse Resistance

The first pushes you over the second and you have the third if you don't tend to fall back.


I'm not talking about myself. This is the way a disgruntled tech guy sounds.

And I guess I've already admitted I'm disgruntled.

Zephyr in the Woods

(Reproduced from an older blog of mine...I am rather hazy about what I was thinking when I wrote it, though [ :( ])


A grey sky
A desolate landscape
An empty horizon
A deathly silence....or is it?

When the eyes have given up
looking out for the elusive sign
When the hands reach out
for a feel that's no longer there
When the ears strain to catch
notes that once filled space

My face feels it...
slow, gentle, deliberate
or can I call it afraid?
Flowing through the leaves
Brushing the trunks
Kissing the wild flowers
And...

Maybe there's a word from someone afar
Maybe there's a feeling waiting to be felt
Maybe it's the last there ever will be
Maybe it's now or never

Grappling with a trepidation
The solace of arrival may well be
Overwhelmed by the loneliness of parting
Welcome it with open arms, if you must
But know that you will never hold it for ever
Enticement; entrapment; what punishment!
But then...
It may all be nothing
Or it may hold a storm in its wake
What do you have for me?
O zephyr in the woods...
