Today, there are fewer Steel-Cheeseheads in my mind. Which is good, because those things take up a lot of room, and they are quite pointy. And they make an annoying jangly sound when you walk...
Let's see...where are we now? I use the royal "we" because there are many different shades and iterations of myself right now, kindof like what happens when you and 4 other roommates share the same bathroom. It can be terribly inconvenient when you need to use it and it's already occupied. So, the roommates currently sharing my brain-loo are an odd lot. We've met the Cheeshead fellow. I'll introduce others as they arise.
But today, I am more "me" than "other-than-the-me-that-I'd-like-to-be", ergo, I am gooderer and happier. I did, after all, just get a call for an interview in the industry I've always wanted to be in (the Video Game industry), the sun is out, and life stretches before me as infinite possibility.
And, amongst other things, I had a couple of friends point out the obvious, which is what I also pointed out in my very first Opening Salvo. "Where-ever you go, there you are," but different variations thereto that sank in better.
One version, which I did enjoy much, was "Success is how you experience each step and not the step itself," which, while uncredited, I believe is from an Internet marketing success program. It evidences clearly though that it's how we react to everything that makes all the difference.
The other version, was wisdom from the finest of all the self help gurus: Ziggy. Yes, the potatoe-shaped lump of a cartoon character.
Buckaroo Banzai-like, Ziggy taught us simply
"You should enjoy here while you’re here, because there is no here there."
Ain't it the truth.
