About the Site
The idea for this site came when I decided that I wanted a place to put fanlistings that weren't related to my Lord of the Rings sites. It grew from there, but being someone who is rather shy and has a more-than-heathly allowance of self-criticism, deciding exactly how to make a site about me was sometimes challenging...
Title
'Unattended Moments' is taken from a passage in The Dry Salvages by T.S. Eliot (part of Four Quartets). Eliot is talking about the perception of the eternal within our lives:
For most of us, there is only the unattended
Moment, the moment in and out of time,
The distraction fit, lost in a shaft of sunlight,
The wild thyme unseen, or the winter lightning
Or the waterfall, or music heard so deeply
That it is not heard at all, but you are the music
While the music lasts.
This has always been one of my favourite passages, as it is within the moments of beauty in 'ordinary' life - listening to music, admiring the beauty of nature, daydreaming - that I find most significance.
Layout
I wanted a simpler, cleaner layout. This one features a few of my own photographs, and was also designed to integrate with Wordpress so that I could experiment with a blog.
