in the beginning
Once upon a time I was a beginning-middle-end kind of man.
Meaning: once I'd start to read a book I'd finish. I ate everything on my plate. Paying for admission, I'd walk the whole museum.
Somewhere in middle age I changed, the change having something to do with time and time having almost everything to do with the brain, as the neuroscientist's are now saying.
Now I stop reading almost as many books as I start, and push myself away from the table more often than not.
I've yet to walk out of a movie and can currently recommend "Bill Cunningham New York", the documentary about the New York Times photographer.
