Myth is the public dream, and dream is the private myth. - Joseph Campbell
Reflections
of people who write are stunningly different. Some write from the depths of their souls, reflecting their innermost deep thoughts. Others reflect the opinions of others, keeping their own - as best they can - hidden. Some reflect the objective truth as non fiction. Others write fiction that is its own kind of truthful reflection.
My reflections are my ideas about things. I think about something, "reflect" on it, and write my "take" on it, what I think about something. Sometimes it works; sometimes it doesn't. But it remains a very special privilege to be able to do it.
I shall return . . .

My topical post today at South by Southwest is about the proposals for troop withdrawal from Iraq.
Making good Mondays is like making coffee -
The week is before us - like the coffee pot - waiting to brew. Making it good is a matter of choice, luck, creativity, patience and acceptance of the outcome.
