Welcome

I have finally decided to take the plunge and join the ever-swelling ranks of bloggers. I have been journaling for years and blogging seems to me a logical 'next step'.

Why Journal?
There are many reasons why I journal. Some of the more compelling reasons are as follows:

  • Self-Reflection - Journaling for me is, first and foremost, a form of introspective writing. Through journaling, I become more aware of myself and my spiritual, intellectual, and emotional maturation.

  • Improved Understanding - Journaling allows me to elaborate and expand upon the things I experience. Moreover, journaling helps me to identify patterns in my thinking.

  • Stimulated Creativity

  • Self-Expression

Why Blog?
My decision to capture a portion of my journal as a blog is motivated primarily by a desire to share information in a variety of forms - facts, ideas, beliefs, etc. I am particularly interested in discovering the role blogging might play in the decentralized development of rich knowledge bases.

What to Expect?
I am a man of many passions and eclectic tastes. Consequently, readers of this blog should expect volume and variegation.
