Daily moment of zen
Clear your schedule for the next 9 minutes. There are times in life when you sense the very limits of mankind’s potential, of life, of the edges of our universe – moments of perfection, flawlessness, mindblowing coolness. Summits (vertices?) of life’s multiple-dimensioned box. You sense you’ve arrived at an edge, actually touched the fabric. It’s electrifying.
As a molecular biochemist and a new media geek, I think that’s perhaps what I spend my days searching for, right at the cutting (bleeding!) edge of just two of the many dimensions of humanity’s potential (though I usually just pass it off as neophilia). I give you Freddie King, Sweden, 1973.
“This is the blues, are you listening”
This may not be such a moment for you, but one young human to another, I hope your weeks and months have plenty of others.
