Why this BLOG
Basically, I can't stand it.
My daughter-in-law Julie was complimenting me on how wonderful the dialogue has been on the DeepFUN discussion group . And she said that it seemed to her that no way would the conversation be as wonderful without my active participation. Not as wonderful, asked I to myself? Surely by now there are so many deliciously playful people who have taken an active role in the group that they could sustain as delightfully inspiring of a dialogue with or without me. So, I decided to experiment. I sent a message to the group explaining my experimental absence, for the entire very merry month of May. And it's working. People are doing it without me. They're talking about fun. They're talking about how they can help each other bring fun things to the world. Completely and totally without me! Just as I thought they would.
Except now that I've taken my vow of silence, I find myself, like I said, basically not being able to stand it. Gotta write. Gotta keep sharing those fun thoughts with someone in some place virtually public. Just gotta do it.
And that's why, this blog.
