From Silvia Hartmann:
I spoke to someone this morning who had met an ex school buddy in town and he told me that it wasn't until he explained to his school buddy what he was into and what he was doing that it dawned on him just how far he had actually come.
"When you're right in it, every day," he said, "seems you lose perspective..."
That gave me the idea for today's 60 second exercise.
Imagine you are meeting with someone who hasn't seen you for ten years or so, and you have 60 seconds to tell them what's been happening since then and what you're doing right now.
Just to make sure that YOU also know just how far YOU have already come... :-)

How far have they come from where? And where are they going to? Is it important to travel at all? Who decides where would be a good place to travel to? Is it necessarily any better than the place we have come from?
ReplyDeleteIf you really can sum up 10 years in 60 seconds, apart from the essay performance, I'm afraid maybe you didn't have much to tell.
ReplyDeleteI hate chatting in a rush. But customary readers of this blog knew this already. ;-)
Okay, so I love to communicate. Seems to me it's an essential part of life. Do you really feel you're living, if you can satisfy yourself with 60" every 10 years with somebody you're not trying to avoid?...
Well, the sixty seconds part of it is a bit of a gimmick. There are 365 tips, you get one in the mail every day and use 60 seconds on it. Some of them are very good.
ReplyDeletelife is life. i really don't see that happening to anyone. seems like people are just into themselves these days but it's an interesting concept.
