1981
Today marks the anniversary of my accident.
30 years ago my life changed.
I mark the anniversary of it because I’m thankful. Thankful for every day I get, every day I wake up.
It’s life people and it’s precious. Whatever form it comes to you.
Celebrate!
Well, after 12 months of being horizontal, including the last 10weeks of surgery and rehab I’m finally vertical again and home.
While in rehab at the Spinal Unit I got to hang out with some fellow inmates (as I lovingly referred to ourselves) from all different backgrounds and so here they are:
1. Jim, 2. Anita, 3. Des, 4. Marilyn

“… it’s in the act of making things that we figure out who we are.”
Had a bit of fun and a play with Photo Booth while my boy was over, then created this slideshow with a couple more clicks.
The Mac just makes it too easy.
Then again, memories shouldn’t be hard.

Interesting to compare Linda Stone’s 20yr cycle date of 2005.

Interesting thought behind this PR stunt.
Is your computer backed up to the point you’d smash it without notice to get a new laptop?

“What matters is context. I’m tired of having companies guess at what my context is. I know what my contexts are. I know how they change. I want my own ways of changing contexts, and of informing services of what those contexts are. In some cases I don’t mind their guessing. In a few I even appreciate it. But in too many cases their guesses only get in the way. The Google search case is just one of them.”
What underlines Doc’s experience is this issue of control.
Anyway, seeing Doc write about this got me thinking about what I was hung up on when I wrote back in 2005:
“These different modes we operate in. This is our context and this is what is getting me hung up about attention. Attention only measures what we look at not why we are.”

Assumptions sap our ability to control what is ours.
