My intent for this blog is to put on a page, “this is who I am” (or a lot of times, who I want to be). I’m trying to dig into my brain and find grooves that I fall into consistently. Writing is a way for me to think about why those grooves exist and express how it affects my life. I’m not trying to convince you my way is correct. In fact, I’d love to hear why you think it isn’t correct. I am a person who can easily blind myself to my flaws and I’ve grown tired of the echo chamber of my own mind. I’d rather put it all out there and get feedback from my community.

I’d also love to hear about how you view the world. I’m fascinated by people’s differences. It seems like there should be an optimal way to be a human, and yet personalities are infinitely variable. I want to know how you tick, because I will happily take something from somebody else and incorporate it into my world view. Everybody operates the way they do for a reason. I’m interested in those reasons.
