I post
No response
Is my experience
Lost in the ether
Or buried in Google
My words
Said, unread, perish.
Thoughts dashed
Or so, it seems
Vainly I ask
Please comment
And wonder aloud
Is it delivered?
Cassandra was cursed to utter prophecies that were true but that no one believed. This seasider just hits the keys occasionally.

ReplyDeleteI like the farming experiences Bruce.
ReplyDeleteAs a historian, I feel their value particularly to your family and your descendants in the future, if these writings can survive. I suggest that they are more valuable as 'cameos' than a whole life story, which can 'bore the pants off' future generations. Cameos of experience are cogent and show a path to the soul of the writer in a few paragraphs. I suggest that you keep writing in this vein and store them away in some manner, so that they cannot be lost. We do not know what the future holds, but futurists imagine a world that is well beyond our understanding as we approach 'The Singularity'. What value to historians of that era will be talk of farming from a person who actually lived in times when such activity happened. How valuable was Samuel Pepys to the history of London ? Keep up the good work. Your rantings have more value than you can imagine.
