It's Christmas 2024. Where does the time go?
My last entry here was over four years ago, written in the shadow of Covid. Now I write again, in the shadow of yet another Christmas, and then sure as day follows night, a new year. Tick. Another year. Where does the time go?
It's been so long, too long. How are you, what are you, where are you? Questions, questions. I look on line, scour the internet looking for clues, but mostly not understanding any platform post-Facebook. What do I know? Isaac was looking to go abroad to teach. Tadhg was playing basketball in America. I even found some footage of him shooting baskets - at least that is what I think it's called.
Have I changed? Undoubtedly. Years are cumulative, the more that pass over you, the more they leave their mark. You are both too young to understand that, but time just nibbles away at everything.
Anyway this is just a note, like the one pinned to Voyager 1, shot into the unknown never knowing if it'll ever be read.
If you are out there then when you are ready, please get in touch.
I found a roll of film recently. From a more innocent time, the ghost of a long lost Christmas.These were taken over New Year in Scotland, mid 90s.
