2006 has been a crazy year. It's strange how fast the years begin to flow as age progresses. Well, not really that strange, if you think about it mathematically.
Our perception of time is directly linked to the amount of time which we have already percieved. A two-year old toddler will percieve one year as half of her life; a 75 year old person will percieve the same year as 1/75th of his life. So we could (if we're being really dorky) apply the hyperbola f(x) = 1/x (where x is time in years) to represent our perception of time.
In any case, this past 1/24th of my life has been full of perplexing challenges and satisfying achievements. I have a lot to be thankful for. A few great friends, a lot of neat-o acquaintances, a loving family, a darling girlfriend; these are but a few of the blessings that I can count.
I'm especially thankful for those people who've gambled precious moments of their short time on this spinning ball by engaging in creative projects with me. It's been truly grand to be a part of something bigger than myself, and to record testaments to our collaborations in the pulsing flesh of the electronic netherworld. To those of you whom I have not yet had the opportunity to work with: our time will come. It will be awesome.
It's my hope that I will continue to grow and stave off the dullard crusts that calcify the soul as cash and convention consume. I hope and pray the same for you. I hope and pray for clean water and health care for everyone in need. I hope and pray for an end to senseless follow-the-leader-ing and sloagan-slinging. I hope and pray that we all find peace and purpose in this ever-complexifying world.
Have a merry Christmas, or December 25th and beyond if you'd rather.
