Fleeing the Herd

The Boy Wonder Years

I am an ardent believer in personal mythologies - the stories we tell ourselves, and perhaps others, about our own lives; the sacralization of events and occaisions that have personal significance. Life is not a search for meaning, life is a process of developing meaning; of investing meaning in people, places, moments in time. The Boy Wonder Years, for me, was a personal high water mark in creativity, emotional investment and a life rich in meaning.
