Everyone has a different story about how they were diagnosed with MS. Having watched Mum suffer from the same illness gave me more of a heads-up than others. So it’s fitting I said something to her while I was inside the MRI tube.

Grieving for the loss of something? For me, with MS, it's the proper use of feet. I could have picked many parts of my life that I can no longer use so freely, blithely. I pray this might help you process your grief, still hoping for good and better.

I was posed a writing challenge by a writer friend, Leanne Margaret, to write about a 'three second stretch of time.' I wrote about my wife and our relationship via the medium of one standard breath.

@joshm @arcinternet @juliaroggatz @daraoke Please do! I love this!

[Paul Gallagher, Writer @melbournewords]

@joshm @arcinternet @elfanek An infinite canvas to browse on? Sounds exciting, the sort of boundary Arc would traverse.

[Paul Gallagher, Writer @melbournewords]

@joshm @browsercompany @karlamickens Can you give me an Arc version of iGoogle that brings onscreen widgets of a sort into one browser window?

[Paul Gallagher, Writer @melbournewords]

@joshm AI functionality is a noisy space that you bring some perspective to. But it is not why I live in Arc. The feature you didn’t roll out is more exciting to me — another unique take on sorting the messiness of life online in 2023.

[Paul Gallagher, Writer @melbournewords]

@joshm Uncommon simplicity and customisable organising are still the most important ‘Why Arc?’ features for me that kill all pretenders to the throne you sit on. The AI features are the least compelling capabilities for me, when compared with your core reasons to love Arc.

[Paul Gallagher, Writer @melbournewords]

This is a tough memory, though I survived. Every detail is as clear today as when it happened to me in 1982.

@joshm @julianlehr Good pick. Well done @julianlehr!

@joshm @arcinternet Arc is… what happens when Superman builds a browser, Silver Surfer makes it fly, Wonder Woman put wings on it, and Spiderman knits it all together!

[Paul Gallagher, Writer @melbournewords]

@joshm @arcinternet Arc is… the kind of boat 'Noah' would build if he were constructing a new way to navigate a flooded market of browsers – full of everything needed to survive the deluge, but making you feel like you're the safest, smartest sailors on the ocean!

[Paul Gallagher, Writer @melbournewords]

@joshm @arcinternet Arc is… to the Internet what pen is to paper, or like roads to cars, brains to thinking. It’ll TAKE you to answers rather than solve them — faster, lighter, with less donations to the swear jar!

[Paul Gallagher, Writer @melbournewords]

@joshm @browsercompany I would introduce a customisable ‘theme’ button into Boosts to apply a quick set of preferences to a website address. For example, if you are a fan of Avenir Next + 90% zoom view + ALL CAPS, then that ‘preset theme’ is applied by one press of your ‘custom boost’ button.

Having a progressive version of MS is a continual pain and limitation on living that is beyond description. But being married to my wife is a joy beyond measure.
