A Month!

So I've finished a Month of blogs! What have I learned, what self-appraisal blog can I give, into my contribution to general blogdom? Well, what progress can be made when life is one big groundhog-day (as in the film)? This should be a subject of a future blog (can't say that it will though...) but you get my meaning I suppose: every day presents itself as a day just like the one before, and in important areas of our life we don't "progress" from a point we left off the day before, or the week before. We just repeat, or forget. I'll probably look back over some of the blogs in this Month and think "did I think/say that?": so where is the progress in my thinking? I think our thoughts are as disconnected as one day is from the next, and that you can't ask someone what he thinks about something, only what he thinks about something at that particular moment. I think some people (religious people?) like to think of life as a journey, and we are the boat, or we are at least objects in a boat. But in that illustration you would be better comparing men to the stuff outside the boat: constantly changing, moving, intermixing, and hard to grasp or even describe. We lend our support though to boatlike organizations, which float on us and displace us, but that can't really hold us. And these organizations sometime try to say that a certain bit of water is better than another bit. I'd like to know how they've managed to divide water from water, who do they think they are, Moses? What a silly rant to end the Month!
