Well, I am starting behind the eight ball today. The morning was a bit chaotic and it took me a while to get settled in here at the office. With a combination of training and meetings over the last two days I am running an email deficit today – I’ve got a stack of things in the “action required” folder – so I reckon most of the day will be spent trying to make some headway against that tide. (I seem to be obsessed with metaphors today).
"…Living only for the moment, turning our full attention to the pleasures of the moon, the snow, the cherry blossoms and the maple leaves; singing songs, drinking wine, diverting ourselves just floating, floating….refusing to be disheartened, like a gourd floating along with the river current; this is what we call the floating world…” Asai Ryoi, in Ukiyo Monogatari (Tales of the Floating World, 1661)
