New Beginnings

Yesterday we had lunch with old friends on San Diego Bay. Gorgeous day, breezy and hot! The restaurant had lowered the translucent darkened window shades, which spared us from the sun but also cut off the breeze. “Can I raise this?” I asked. “You can,” the manager said, “but the breeze catches the shades and they may swing in and bang you on the head.”

So, no breeze. But an insight: it’s amazing how quick I am to come to conclusions about something–i.e. raise the shade and get the breeze, for heaven’s sake!–while having no idea of other consequences that might apply to the situation.

I’m beginning this blog with a similar naivete. Not having a clue what it’s going to mean down the road…or what might swing in and hit me on the head.
