...I think that for the past 18 months it's become more difficult to be loyal to this blog and leave a thought here every once in a while. i blame facebook and other social networking sites for that; what is it about the instant 'status updates' in such virtual places that almost hampers my ability to write something longer here..?
But here is a thought, tonight: recently, i have been trying to stop every once in a while. stop and do nothing. not keep myself busy. not work, not have fun. just stop. i read somewhere that 2010 is just flying, escaping like sand between our fingers. i have the same feeling; how did we make it to the end of spring? so I stop. trying to understand what time passing really means....
and then i start again.

30
having turned thirty only recently, and not quite knowing how to write about it (no, it doesn't feel like all of a sudden am old and responsible) i will retreat to my favourite activity:
quote from something that i have been reading lately.
'the random ordering of the world, the unimaginable odds against any particular condition, still please me. [..] never believed in fate or providence, or the future being made by someone in the sky. Instead, at every instant, a trillion trillion possible futures; the pickiness of pure chance and physical laws seemed like freedom' (I.McEwan Saturday)
yes perhaps this fascination for random order and random encounters and chance is still what keeps me happy in this world..

the second law of thermodynamics
teaches us something about the irreversibility in nature.
catastrophe theory in mathematics relates to small changes in circumstances that can lead to abrupt and drastic changes of behaviour.
chaos theory relates to understandings of time and space; say, for example, why do we remember the past and not the future?
science has been slipping notes under my door.
and spring is almost back in this part of the world.
and i am not sure but sometimes things seem to be making more sense in their absurdity.
it's been a while. hello again.
