Busy-ness is not the same
 

 
"But progress means getting nearer to the place where you want to be.
 
"And if you have taken a wrong turning, then to go forward does not get you any nearer.
 
"If you are on the wrong road, progress means doing and about-turn and walking back to the right road; and in that case the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive man."
 
~C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
 
 
 
"Remember: Faking through at a 'productive' pace won't get you what you want. Busy-ness is not the same thing as progress."

January 11 -  17

Do you know what today is?

* Something lost, something gained
* Mathematicians and myth-makers
* Outrageous stories and fashion outrages
* Inventors, signs and images

Maybe you "got" it; maybe you don't. Should you?

Look! Up in the sky!

My friend the doctor says the world is full of fantasy, and who are you and I to disagree?

It seemed like a good idea at the time....

Wait: that's not quite right.

On this date in history, something was lost, and something was gained.
