The Connection

Alone But Not Lonely

Alone but not lonely,

one day at a time.

Freedom to be foolish;

making my own rhymes.

Footloose & fancy free.

filling day and night,

with what ever I please,

whatever rhythm I like.

Weaving my tapestry

of new and old friends.

Big and small fantasies

change with the wind.

Alone but not lonely,

keeping head high,

wearing a big smile,

but empty inside.

What Connection?

Connections are what journalism is all about. Making connections between ideas or things, connecting to the readers, connecting readers to others...

And writing makes me feel (almost) connected to the reader. Of course, the connection is complete if I get feedback, which is the beauty of PNN. They say art is born of pain. I think it is actually born of pain, or love, or any connection made between an isolated person and the inspiration of connecting with the creative universe.

Have I lost you yet? Are you asking yourself: "why am I wasting my precious time reading this cosmic hippy blather?" I could go on and on about why I see the universe as creative, but suffice it to say, that (becides the obvious thesis that the Universe is God and God is the creator) the universe created life, and life persists through so much adversity and yet continues to increase and improve and become even more tenatious. If that's not a creative force, well... nothing is.

Creating thought provoking, entertaining articles to share with you is my reason for these contributions to PNN. So, I hope you will at least enjoy the read, and perhaps even discover worthwhile connections in what you find here.
