Making the time and freeing the space

Getting started with the blog was relatively easy. The real challenge has been to keep it going. That needs a bit of effort to make the time and free the space. Although I have not posted anything since June, I have been noticing loads of people, places and things that have been improving with age.
In this post I would like to highlight one in particular.
Back in June, I went to see Leonard Cohen perform in Dublin. It was a suberb concert! The man, now into his seventies, has clearly improved with age. He was totally at ease with himself and with us. What struck me was just how generously and frequently he acknowledged the contribution of his co-performers.
To get a sense of the concert, check out Bock the Robber's review on his blog at:

He captured it brilliantly.
And then there was the holiday in France.... But that's for the next time - when I make the time and free the space.
All things good! Chris
