all things must pass

What's the deal lately. Seems like everyone I know is either getting married or moving away. Don't they realize how inconvenient this is for me? Or maybe it is just life telling me its time to get marr... uhm, move away too. Sell off my house and my car and all earthly possesions... then move to some remote mountainside, live off the land, and teach the local wildlife Java (they already know VB). Or maybe not. But it is interesting to step back and reflect on life once in a while. Look down on the world from above, see how the chess pieces (including oneself) move around, oftentimes in ways one would never have thought or hoped they would. Change isn't as hard or scary from this perspective, and somehow things always tend to work out how they should in the long run. Better not stand around and reflect for too long though, or else a bird will fly by and take a crap on my head. So as they say, All Things Must Pass... which is true and a good reminder to accept it and just try to make each new phase of life better than the last.
