Life-like skiing
Just idly thinking about my ski holiday. Looking at the floor of my room that is nice and flat and comparing it to the slopes where I spent the last week. It occured to me that when you are skiing you dont get anywhere unless there is a slope, and when there is a slope it is more dangerous but utlimately more satisfying.
The floor of my room is flat. I spend most of my time in my room trying to work. But as anyone knows who has worked from home, its tough. Sometimes I feel like I am standing on a flat bit at the top of a slope, quavering before the task of conquering the ice, moguls and weathering the falls and terror. I know most times though that I am in the middle of a white-out on a black slope, crapping myself, constantly falling, but sometimes getting a spectacular view of the mountains through a break in the clouds.
It was a nince view, while it lasted. Back to work now...
