PERSONAL NOTES

Past: Interests -
    Our pasts are a series of chapters, some of which are still open and some of which are pretty much closed (at least for the moment).
    Our focus of attention is forced to change over the years in response to the challenges of life, and old interests necessarily fade into the background of our consciousness as circumstances evolve and as our finite amounts of energy must be redirected elsewhere. However, those interests still exist in that background, and it is useful at times to remember the rewards that their pursuit once gave us whenever we had worked them to some level of competence.
    They are also clues for the future, and perhaps their memory may become a renewed source of optimism whenever that future looks a bit gloomy.
    Research projects, intellectual issues, hobbies, responses to problems, and the vagaries of accidental curiosities are all instigators of such interests.
     A common ingredient in many of my own interests was and is the desire to explore. Although relatively few of them were physical enough to be recordable in photographs, here are a couple interests that did generate some pictures (and I am finding more).
