What's it all about, Alfie?
That's a question that comes to the fore from time to time. Perhaps when you are about to hit a milestone age and realise that the road rising to meet you is shorter than the trail you've left behind. Perhaps when you are coming to terms with the loss of someone you love and life tastes like dust.
Whatever the reason, I think it's no bad thing to ask that question and that's what I have decided to do.
So, here I am, armed with a question. It's a very good question. But who shall I ask? I think over the coming year, I will wander around, find interesting people and ask them my question. From physicists to porn stars. From rabbis to rude boys. I'll ask them all what its all about and see what they say.
Hopefully we'll talk. Talk of Life. Laugh.
Perhaps I'll learn something new about how to look at life. And if I do, I'll be sure to share it with you.
