Blog blog blog... This is me writing a blog. Megsy said she needed a guest blogger for todays blog, so sorry guys i'm it.
Kind of crazy having a blank canvas. I've nearly always got something to springboard off, someone else's thought, a bible passage, a message I heard recently, but this is just blank, no agenda, so many options!
It's hard to not just commentate your life, but that is what Facebook/twitter is for, this is supposed to be a dump for your thoughts...
What happens when u genuinely don't have that many of your own original thoughts...
I can't remember the guys name that worked at the u.s. patents office about a hundred years ago who said, "everything that can be invented has now already been invented" 100 odd years later and boy was he wrong! we now have the Transforma Ladder and The Renovator, 2 amazing things we could not life a day without.
But honestly I feel a bit like this guy. I sometimes think I am mentally disabled in some way with this stuff, like I missed something developmentally in the creativity imagination stakes. For years I have been a builder of others ideas rather than a created of my own. It's not all bad, don't get me wrong I honestly believe it is this one thing that makes me a good leader of teams. It would be a lame and unoriginal project if i was left to my own devices.
Somewhat luckily I have done a great job in life surrounding myself with creative and visionary people. When I say surrounding, my family are full of them, my dad is exceptional, and in have leant on him heavily for the past 30 years. But about 10 years ago showing wisdom well beyond my 20yrs of age, I married the Queen!!!
Obviously readers of this blog are well aware of a few of her talents, she truly is one of the most brilliant minds alive. Her natural ability to take the complex and incomprehensible and turn it into simple and accessible for the average human is in my opinion rarely equalled and massively under-appreciated. She has more vision in her pre-cup-of-tea shuffles to the kitchen in the morning than I do in the average week!
Anyway I've managed to waste 5 mins of your time already talking about very little, so id best be going. At least you will look forward to Meg being back on deck tomorrow!!!
P.s. one little piece of commentary: The youth project I created for Central West Care was on the front page of the paper today!
