What this blog is about (copy of first post)

I should introduce the blog. Well, once upon a time there was a life – and this is more or less what it looks like from the inside looking out.

The blog will cover a truly eccentric bundle of topics that pretty much make up the time that I spend here in this life. Whatever most occupies my mind at a given moment will be the flavour of the day and what I will post. I think lots about what it means to be human and to be alive (or dead). I talk lots about money (economics), gold and silver investing, nature, politics, being a father, living in a tropical part of the world, what it is like being me, what it is like being you, what the world looks like from the eyes of a three year old, systems of belief, racism, ignorance, liberation, enlightenment, taking care of my body, taking responsibility for my life – stuff like that. I’m just going to write as I go along and see what happens.
