Introduction

To me blogging is a foreign idea. It has been so long since I kept a diary, let alone wanted others to know my innermost thoughts, that I have to reframe my way of thinking about writing and begin to open up to an audience.

This is for myself, and if you stumble across this and enjoy it I will be pleased, but I am trying to find an outlet for my ideas and a means to process my thoughts. But that is enough of a disclaimer for now. I also want to say that I hope to infrequently write as I am writing a letter, because I typically have a specific person in mind for a letter, and I do not want to write to someone in particular. This introduction is a practice post, and a warm-up for the real thing. I am nervous about this and worried about what may occur from this. But I feel like I should attempt to document what my mind is up to, if just for my own amusement in the future.

I welcome any and all comments or questions you may have. I am very interested in starting a dialogue about something interesting and finding new people who think in the strange way I do. And for a sampling if that, I want to attempt to describe it. My mind is always active and sometimes a great distraction and a roller-coaster. I will think about odd things that most people often take for granted, like how are Reece's Pieces made and why do women in this culture wear so much make-up. Also, I am constantly wondering what is the self and what is our identity as an individual and a culture. Is anything about the self static. There was a time, when I could not fathom that I was different than my thoughts, but I realized that there has to be a thinker that thinks a thought...and so therefore who is that, what is that? This was a very intense realization when it actually got through to me. So now I play with identity and stay always fluid...never stagnant.
