leaping.

“today is an ephemeral ghost…

a strange amazing day that comes only once every four years. For the rest of the time it does not “exist.”

in mundane terms, it marks a “leap” in time, when the calendar is adjusted to make up for extra seconds accumulated over the preceding three years due to the rotation of the earth. A day of temporal tune up!

but this day holds another secret—it contains one of those truly rare moments of delightful transience and light uncertainty that only exist on the razor edge of things, along a buzzing plane of quantum probability…

a day of unlocked potential.

will you or won’t you? should you or shouldn’t you?

use this day to do something daring, extraordinary and unlike yourself. 

take a chance and shape a different pattern in your personal cloud of probability!”

  1. I wish….. sadly, our leap year day (used to call it an unpaid working day when I was younger) is dedicated to bring LOTS of stuff to the brocante (charity shop) and waste disposal ….. where we will probably be regulars every Saturday from now on until death does take us away!!!! ;)
