It's imperative that you read closely the things with which I am about to share. Things are moving too fast in today's world and we need to allow ourselves plenty of time to think through the problems that our society shares. If we move too quickly then we miss the opportunity to digest the world around us. Instead we masticate the information at record speeds and swallow it whole down into the gut where it sits and festers until it is nothing but crap. Useless, it seems to me, then, to be able to know so much but savor it so little. You probably do the same thing. We all have our moments where the speed of everything seems to supercede the soul of what it is we want to love and enjoy, like a flipbook's first hundred pages that seem to vanish before our eyes but we can't flip back to see it because time is elusive and you can never take it back. I am no time traveler and cannot manipulate something so cosmically out of my grasp, but rather I revel in the passing of time and can attest that people who use patience in their observation of the human speed will be more fully nourished with the nuance of the world. I know this from experience because it is I, The Great Mr. G, who will be briefing you on the things your life is too busy to gather. Today is moving faster than yesterday and I bet tomorrow will set a new speed for which things will be comprehended. Do not be fooled by the flashing urgent reports or the ticker on the bottom of the screen with text in all caps like they are warning the populous about the second coming. INSTEAD LOOK NO FURTHER THAN MR G'S IMPERATIVE INTERJECTIONS. I know how to take things a step at a time. I know how overwhelming it is to take on too much at once so let me be your guide as we navigate front page headlines and the issues that pop up on your news feed as you peruse your Blackberry at the coffee house because a lot of it deserves a second look and a little perspective from a guy that has been through it all before. I am without a doubt the man for the job because of my uncanny ability to recall the events of the past, the ones that swept too quickly past the dimwits of our society, and connect them to the problems that you have today. Think about any problem that you have had this morning up until you read this entry. There are probably a lot because this is a terrible world we inhabit, filled with the pressure to do way too much in so little time and if you do not do what is required of you than it is you that will suffer, really suffer the consequences. Let Mr G interject some perspective into your busy world and give what he says a chance to reverberate to the bones of humanity all of that which makes you scratch your head and wonder if you have heard it all before. Humanity is cyclical, my friends, and I have completed the circuit time and time again. No longer will I pass through once more and not warn my fellow humans about the danger that lies ahead. So bookmark this page and return frequently because the time is right for an information revolution and I will tell you everything you need to know about anything, in due time.
