The RIP thread...

its not ego. i'm far from special. i don't consider myself anything important. but sometimes i wonder why being passionate about something 9-times-out-of-10 just makes you look like a dick.

do you know how disturbing it is to be told "give less of a fuck", "don't try so hard", "stop thinking so much", "just roll with it", "don't aim so high" etc.

I know very little about sculpture, about surfing, about flower arranging, about tree management, about global finance strategies, about farmville, about Vauxhall Mechanic Codes Of Conduct, about the life of Dame Judy Dench, about leather tanning, about geology.......but i have my opinion.
If anyone has any true depth to any of these things, i'd love to hear it. I'd love to know, on a deep level , the good, the bad and the ugly. i wouldn't shoot them down because i didn't agree with them. Experience trumps opinion.

I like big posies of geraniums
