It's a complicated world...

It feels like a Thursday, but that in itself is no bad thing, i quite like Thursdays, and the added bonus is that it is actually Friday, which means that it is indeed the weekend (and by it being Friday means that I get my weekly Keeley Hawes fix!!).

Politics seems to be the buzz word today, I get why we need to pay attention to the results from the General Election, however we had BBC News24 playing all day (via the wonders of the internet) at work and until i disappeared downstairs at 2pm they hadn't even mentioned that the rest of the world existed... were we watching some magical time machine that kept going back to the start of the hour as if the rest of the news didn't exist, or had my colleague actually just put the election bits on and I was just being dumb... it's interesting...

As a side note, its the Malvern Flower Show tomorrow (well it's actually on over the whole weekend but I'm going tomorrow) so I can pretend to myself that I'm a) a horticulturalist b) a photographer c) I have a garden to put all my purchases in... Sometimes if I close my eyes its very easy to put myself 5 years in the future where I have all these things and can revel in them, is it stupid to dream of a garden as opposed to something more important? I think maybe thats the me dreaming as I sit in my 2nd Floor Flat in an affluent area of the city where all I can do is look at our poor Charlie the chilli plant and wish it looked a little bit more alive (the cold weather has frozen it I think!)

DCI Gene Hunt is about to do something rash, so I might leave it on that note...

Thinking point of the entry....

Can you justifiably dream of something, or desire something, merely because you don't have it, or is it merely the not having that makes you want it...
Edit: Thanks to my first follower (SP) and some new dawn rational sense I realised that this might be taken as being the same thing... what I meant to say is...
Do you dream of something because it is your ideal and something that you really want, or do you just want it because you don't have it... or do these things live hand in hand and therefore cannot be separated?!

  1. Can you dream of something just because you don't have it or is not having it what makes you want it?
    ^ Maybe I'm being a bit dumb, but that feels like they amount to the same thing.

    None the less, I think a lot of the time people do just want things because they can't have them
