Perpetual Motion

When I was a kid, I learned a musical piece for the cello called Perpetual Motion (okay, it was for any instrument, but I play cello :). Even now, I just think about the name of the piece and the fingerings start running through my head - DEFF EFGG FGAF GEAA and so on and so forth, through two or three stanzas and back to the first.

What does this mean, you ask? It occurs to me that this blogging phenomenon is a lot like that musical piece. We start at one note and flitter along to the next, absorbing each one differently but noting the beauty of the whole. Without realizing it, we come full circle - and yet the music continues, like widening ripples in a pond. I dont even know for certain if what I've written really touches someone, until in passing I overhear someone else talking about...my blog! Well, maybe it is a little cheesy of me, but it is nice to know sometimes that your own little bit of silliness made someone else smile.

...and that, boys and girls, just may be the whole point of the game. :D
