Missing in Inaction Sorry about the lack of posts lately. I would like to say that I have been busy in the studio or working on something really big and exciting, but I have just had a lazy week. The busiest I got was when I drove into Newcastle on Tuesday (about 20 minutes drive) and stared at the ocean for a while (see pic).

There's something about the ocean that seems to recharge my batteries. Particularly when there is a storm happening; when it makes you feel small and insignificant, but it also seems to share its power with you. I don't think I could ever live much more than half an hour away from the water.

The rest of the time was spent reading, writing and listening to music. The books that I have been reading are;

• The Soul of Rumi - (Translations by Coleman Barks) - Some of his poems seem to creep up on you and slap you with life. Rumi was way ahead of his time.
• Infinite Self - Stuart Wilde - A lot of spiritual and self help authors get caught up in their own self importance and start taking themselves too seriously. This guy isn't one of them authors. He's a little crazy, enjoys life, and I love the way he writes.

Anyway, I just thought I would explain my disappearance as a couple people were checking to see if I still existed ;-) Things should be back to normal on Monday.
