I just read this. And you made me remember a moment like this in my life. I was 7. We'd just moved to a new town, away from everything we knew, I was in a school where noone understood me (and I didnt get them at all)...and sports day practice had started (and well, i sucked at sport so badly it made me nervous just looking at those green teesav shorts they deign upon us to wear)...and i turned around and came out of the little room where i was getting changed...and there was noone around. i yelled. i screamed. school was deserted. (what i didnt know was that they had all gone across the road to the sports field) and i ran around yelling and crying. until a woman found me. a cleaning lady. and she said "who are you?" and i said "i dont belong here" she said "you're probably right" and led me across to the sports field. I was. a week later my folks told us we were moving back home again. heh. xxx Wow. I just read this. And you made me remember a moment like this in my life.

Almost as if it were an accident. Very good post. I came from two degrees of seperation to your blog. I am from Colorado springs Colorado. How neat that I am typing to a web designer in South Africa. Just sayin. It’s a very strange feeling to realize that you are a soul sitting in a body, staring out at the world. Almost as if it were an accident.

I realize it was a typo, but I quite like "life ether". I might steal that when I'm feeling hardcore. I think we all must have epiphanies along the way, even if they aren't articulated into solid thoughts or registered consciously. Although I could be wrong :) Just a guess. @Chris: Not sure what to say to that :) Thanks dude.

I always ended up playing against the coaches son and getting horribly thrashed. His name was Paul De Zoo (not sure of spelling) and he ended up a hot shot provincial tennis player. Don't think I have ever had a light bulb moment in my life ether. I used to hate tennisette when I was a kid. I always ended up playing against the coaches son and getting horribly thrashed.
