I know what you're thinking, the world does'nt need another blog.
Right. But with all of the time I spend on Digg these days I feel like perhaps I should be doing something that I may be able to save. Journals were never my thing, my penmanship is terrible.
And let's face it, I like to talk my about my interests, which is certainly a hell of a lot of different things, poltics, religion, herbal medecine, survival, these things don't feel as disparate to me as they perhaps do to you.
I'm not really fanatical. I'm actually quite mellow and in real life I'd love to share a chat with you over some tea, if you have anything interesting to share. I just feel we live in an incredibly unique time. The human race have never been at such a point where we could so easily and so quitly destroy eachother, via nuclear weapons or perhaps diseases, natural or synthetic (Morgellon's, anyone? I explore this topic later, it's fascinating). And our planet's resources are being depleted at an utterly unustainable rate.
Yet, at the same time, we have new technology, such as new technology from nanosolar that should make solar panels 1/10 to 1/5 the current cost within the year. We have pre-fabricated houses that could make housing highly affordable yet environmentally friendly.
But aside from the technological and political aspects, I feel that perhaps we're at some type of metaphysical crossroads. I have great hope for humanity and feel that perhaps we may be able to soon accomplish things, and have such peace and fufillment as has not been felt before. I'm not prophetic, and I rarely dream, but a cousin of mine has had some fascinating recurring dreams of a future that felt peaceful, with a weird melding of nature and technology.
So, that's where I'm at. I'm sure some of you have some things to share. I have a lot of things I can write about, but I like to learn from you as well. I set up this blog because of Digg, I started making so many comments on articles and I felt there was a lot I wanted to say but wasn't directly relevant to the topic, and that writing a lengthy examination as a comment in an article seemed like a bit of a waste of effort.
So, peace to you all, and welcome.
