Writing by hand exposes my weaknesses. There are definitely both spelling errors and grammatical in here. Hopefully 100 years from now when they dig up my blog and someone reads it, they will appreciate my being vulnerable!

I’ve been writing a lot lately, and I’m sure that at this point, I’m going through a redundant stage on my blog. The key to processing seems to be that you’re annoyingly redundant for a while, but it is absolutely essential to move past that stage eventually. Maybe blogging will help push me over the…

It’s been a while. I have to admit, I got a bit discouraged when I’d been blogging for a couple of months and still hadn’t gotten any comments. But really, I’m mostly doing this for myself and no one else. Any readers who ever happen upon this site will just be a bonus. I notice…
Continue ReadingReach Goals
I told my team today about all the things I want to do with my life, and I was surprised how positive they were about it. There was no mention of “Well, you might not succeed.” It was unnecessary because of course I’ve considered the possibility that I might not succeed. Very few meaningful ventures…

I’ve been a bit discouraged about writing lately because it seems that I still haven’t been discovered, and also because I feel like I’m being judged if I’m “on electronics” all day. But staring off into space and/or sleeping all day isn’t really any better. I did get a recent morale boost when the hospital’s…
Continue ReadingRepetition Compulsion and Subjectivity
I posted my last entry in part because, although I was steeped in only the Christian point of view for most of my life thus far, lately I’ve been willing to give ear to almost anything but what I grew up with. The people who I admire who create content online watch videos they disagree…
