I have no misconceptions of the interest my life might inspire in others. This blog is mostly for my own purposes. A means to chronicle some of the things I am graced by in my day to day. Currently I have no intention of creating original content. During high school, I was in the habit of carrying a spiral bound notebook that I would write down quotes I found inspirational, humorous, or true. The authority of authorship was not as important as the clarity, wisdom, or insightfullness I found there. Several months ago I read The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand and left many pages dog-eared and underlined. I just started reading the The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. I will be transcribing passages of interest here for later reference.
