6. But Sugar, the ambitions of one should be nothing compared to the size of this big old universe?

 

The formulation of plans is something that we do to make ourselves feel better, to make it seem like we aren’t wasting time. To make it feel like we can have a future, that the fruition of ambition is possible if only we can first conceive it.

So in early 2012 I came up with a plan.

The plan went thusly:

1.     Become a successful, published author.

2.   To start the Ma Xavia Art House – a small gallery where artists can exhibit and sell their art, with a small café and a little shop, a place where artists and writers can have showings and readings…

3.     To start Ma Xavia Publishing – a publishing house based in Bristol.

So it may be safe to say that planning is just another form of time wasting. Planning may very well be just a way to convince yourself you’re doing something with your life instead of just failing… and falling…
