  • Echo: A Dystopian Science Fiction Novel

    I’m walking my 10 lb. terrier Bitefighter through the park, when I chance on a soccer game.  The soccer moms in the stands are hooting and hollering, bumping chests (okay kinda hot), head-butting each other, and yelling in demonically bass voices.  They see me walking by, and caught up in their suburban fury, throw quinoa and…

    To me, the exhortation to enjoy life seems to often be taken out of context.  IMHO, it doesn’t mean that one should walk around in a happy, nonfunctional daze.  It means that one should enjoy every effort, every pleasure and every strife….and take nothing personally, even when dismantling an opponent.

    I’m the new guy at the office, so it’s my turn to be hazed.  I’m running The Gauntlet:  a three-mile-long sprint between a double row of office drones.  At the end of it, I have to punch out a TPS report.  As I’m running, they’re playing all kinds of inoffensive yuppie rock/elevator music, tearing away…

    I’ve come to realize that having engaging tasks to perform is the REAL blessing.  Yeah, I could go for the fancy clothes, the cool house, the car and all that…but those are slap-dash configurations of atoms that are destined to fade.  IMHO, nothing can replace the fulfillment you get from truly applying yourself and building…
