Sitting around the family table over holidays has been a relaxed affair over the past week as we have shared many a laugh, insight or story. One comment from our eldest son reveals both his maturing insight (he is in his last year of Primary School) and his creativity. My wife is extremely creative, and her mind works overtime in its quiet space. Occasionally in the midst of conversation she will erupt with a comment which takes us all off guard, but which is perfectly sensible to her. In the wake of silence created by one such comment this past week, C observed: "Mum, you are just so totally random!" Well, you could have heard a pin drop, as my beloved couldn't work out whether to be offended or simply thankful for the observation. It was an 'Aha!' moment, the comment meant as an innocent observation.
If I remember correctly, something that is random is defined as having a pattern which is not obvious. But is that a modern mindset response?
