My Travels

Nice quiet day today. End of the day as I write this. One of the best travel oriented, exploration, songs is on VH1 Classics, David Bowie, Major Thom. From the Ziggy Stardust album.

One of the groundbreaking breakthrough sets of music. All about transformation, the search for self, the wonderment of what life is supposed to be like. At least from my point of view that is what it is about. From Changes to Ziggy Stardust to Major Thom it is about changes and evolution. One of the main themes of my life is the quest, the search for self. Fuels so much of my writing over the years.

So you can ascribe what you wish to in his songs and writing. They call those out to me, the search, the quest for self. Which is a journey.

So we went no where today. Did a few errands the other day. Walked about half way home on Friday, we got off work early and my car is down and in the shop. I thought it would be done on Friday, no such luck. So I walked a few miles till my ride, the wife, got off work and met me. Time to think to myself which is nice.

Looked at car, the trash on the side of the road, the heat and the other travellers going who knows where all too fast.

We all need to slow down just a little. I still want a bicycle to ride to and from work.
