In the beginning...

... there was a post.

"The unexamined life is not worth living." - some great philosopher (Socrates)

It has been quite some time since I journaled/blogged.  I've noticed with the passage of years, the advancement of my age that I have become less introspective, less thoughtful, less intentional about the way I live. It's likely part of a larger trend in modern society as a whole - living in only the current moment.

Living life passively has not gotten me very far, and I want to be different.

Perhaps by writing my thoughts down for my own review, it will encourage me to think more about who I am, where I'm going, and maybe help me in my quest to become the best version of myself.

Also, a good outlet for me to save something from my "here and now" that I and my family may be able to look back upon some years from now, especially since I never write anything down anymore.

Here we go!
