Today, June 24, 2016 - An Introduction

Why a blog?

Well, why not a blog?



They say that in order to write well, one must simply write, and write often.

So this is what this is. This is my attempt to become a better writer, an attempt to become more structured, and attempt to bring something to the world.

Our culture is a culture of consumption. We consume everything. But what about producing things? Where do all the things we absorb come from?

The short answer is that it all comes from ourselves, but the trick is getting past the obstacles of busyness and other things to move forward into actually producing something meaningful.

I want to be a producer, not just a consumer. In order for my own life to feel like it was justified, I need to add something to this world. I think this is a standard tenet of human nature; we all feel the urge to produce and to add our marks to the culture around us. This blog is an attempt to add to the mass of things we consume; I hope you choose to consume it daily!

What will I write? I have no idea. I’m interested in just about everything, except for sports and hunting and cars and other such manly things. Culture fascinates me the most, along with religious topics. To put it plainly, the world and its occupants occupy my interests.

I hope to write in a succinct and meaningful way. I hope to not waste words but instead to make each word count.

Enjoy!
