Shape of Things to Come

I've been clearing up my old desktop because it's really begun to slow down. I have a penchant for old abandonware games: Sid Meier's Colonization, Dune, Worms, Starcontrol 2, etc. Getting these old games usually includes the risk of downloading viruses, worms, and other malware that gives your CPU a fit of indigestion. Going through my harddrive to clean up space, I've been finding a lot of old files that remind me of my old creativity days.

I feel like an archaeologist, sifting through various documents and media that I've dabbled in the past 4 years. I've found an attempt at writing a screenplay (it's bad). I've found a few rough video creations and piano songs that I had recorded. I also found sketches of a business plan concerning Wang Dogs. It's interesting sorting through all the false starts and amateur finishes. I was so hungry to create that I figured that anything worth doing was doing poorly. Hence why I still sing in the car, despite my little brother's protests.

"There is a time for everything, a season for every activity..." - Ecclesiastes 3:1

Probably the only book in the bible that held weight with me. Written by Solomon himself if you're looking for an ounce of trivium. Anyway, I think the season is back. I want to create videos again. I want to build a website, a business, something I can share and it should be something worth sharing. Not some photocopied rendition of a photocopy. Alas, I still have work to do. I need to finish this and get on with it.
