There are two observations that I have made since the beginning of the current economic turmoil.
The first was that it was going to be a two-prong whammy -- drop then recovery then drop again. I based that on what I saw happen back in 1989 when the real estate values fell dramatically and the tech stocks plummetted. About 18 months later, the small businesses could no longer stay afloat using personal credit, credit cards and trade payables and started to fold....
The second is that we cannot save our way out of a depression. Herbet Hoover did everything the Tea Party suggested, trying to preserve the wealthy. It didn't work then and it is not going to work now. IMNSHO, a robust middle class is necessary for prosperity and it is that middle class that is being currently squeezed out of existance

Say what????
There are at least three pending reflections percolating through the gray matter: - revisionist history [and the application to relationships]
- the onslaught and value of silence
- purpose
Been thinking pretty heavily....

boat trip to the clouds....
Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though I oft have passed them by,
A day will come at last when I
Shall take the hidden paths that run
West of the Moon, East of the Sun.

reaching for clarity....
It will be six months tomorrow that things irrevocably shifted for me, thanks to a little dragon who learned more than I wanted to believe. In that time I have done a lot of processing about what the imbroglio said about everyone involved, thought about revissionist history, completely removed myself from the equation, pondered the value of silence and questioned my purpose. Each one of those items is a blog post in and of itself. Each one tells a story.
Slowly the fogs are lifting....

I'm forever blowing bubbles.....
Bubbles are delicate, ephemeral gossamer things of beauty. To damage the bubble that two people have wrapt around themselves is easy -- doubts, gossip, blame, comparisons, innuendo, inference. And when the bubble bursts, you have to choose whether or not to focus on the loss or the memories
