It's an experiment, really.
If I blog in the chaos and tell no one, will I make a sound?
If it sounds like melodrama, it is.
I'll write what I think and when I think to do so. Maybe eventually I might manage to, through some random act of randomness, string together something thoughtful or at least thought provoking that might attract someone else and in so doing begin a chain reaction that would eventually reach back to myself.
I don't see myself as any sort of innovator. It's probably not even an original thought. In fact, I've been inspired by a book I just read that, among other things, included the story of a couple of kids who set up pseudonyms to write things that far exceed my ability and changed a world. A work of fiction, yes, but it inspired me to try, not to change the world, but to test a different theory.
I'm pretty sure that in this world of billions most people fall into pretty regular groups which I won't attempt to break down. But with that as a given, I know that I personally seek out others who share my beliefs, character traits, thinking, etc., in my own personal life. I've never done so on the internet but then again, that's not why I'm doing it. I just figure that if I write what I think, in the manner that I'd say it, I might attract the very people whom I would be drawn to in the real world. And eventually, the very things that I've written would come back to me.
First, I'll try just blogging.
Then, maybe reading and commenting on other blogs without linking anything back to myself (if I can do it).
You may be able to tell that I haven't really thought this out yet beyond a first step but I have been known to think things to death and do nothing about them, so, for me, that's something.
Until next time...
