I'm going slightly mad |
I just read this, on someone's blog:
"You can't plan things. Things just happen. The universe is full of unforeseen circumstances, that's why their plans are always so shitty, so fly by night, because no other plan would ever work. Crichton and the Moyans are all about improvisation, that's why they succeed and survive. It's why the PKs fail. This is the show telling us something about itself, about how it sees the world."
For a person still flying by the seat of her pants into the great unknown of unemployment, I found this comforting.
And welcome back online! :)
ReplyDeleteIsn't it funny (in the most positive sense of the word) how these insights - helpful ones - come from our beloved sf shows? We should remind this to the detractors of the genre...
Anyway yes, sometimes taking risks pays off, lets us become "our kind of hero", just to stay on Farscape, or even open up unexpected horizons and undreamed-of wonders.
I hope this is exactly what will happen with your choice, whatever it is, when you take the plunge into that "great unknown".
And since I can't resist, I'll add another quote (guess what from?) that seems perfect for the occasion:
The Universe puts us in places where we can learn. They are never easy places, but they are right. Wherever we are, it's the right place .. and the right time. Pain that sometimes comes is part of the process of constantly being born
:)
I see you posted this over a year ago. In the time since then, I hope you've found flying by the seat of your pants to be a fun ride.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Thanks. I was able to keep my job but, writing wise...still flying...
