| i know that i have been largely silent over the past few months. i
haven't been ignoring you -- i really haven't. i've just taken a break.
i'm not sure why i felt the need. i was super busy, had a lot of
reading, and a lot of thinking. i took a philosophy class that made me
think A LOT, and it made me realize how much more i have to learn.
so i've taken a break. and i felt for a time that what i have worked
so hard to establish here was just a big waste of time, like i hadn't
really done anything. but i feel energized again. maybe i'm not doing
a lot. but i'm doing what i do best right now -- i'm publicizing other
people's efforts at making the world a better place. i'm forming
networks and spreading the word about things i care about. one day, i
hope that passion will translate a little more concretely; i'll be able
to solve problems and help people in a more tangible way.
so i am back.
i will do my best to update this blog more often, to comment on yours,
and together -- i firmly believe -- we can make this world a better
place.
