Hi! Welcome to my website, which is also a book in progress.
TL;DR: I have never been more right about anything than when I have felt there is something wrong. What I didn't know was that it was me all along.

Perhaps my favorite quote in recent memory is this:
All models are wrong, but some are useful.
If one is to assume that all ever one approaches when one states their beliefs about something in life is a reflection of a model, one gives.
Gives in their time. Gives in their space. Gives in their moment.
For when one speaks from a place of belief, what they show is something fierce.
We are all driving around in some complex vessels called bodies, but all we ever seem to see with are the eyes in our heads.
What we fail to give way to in moments lost are the times where we must use our minds and hearts to truly open up and listen.
For anything coming out of a person's mouth is evidence. Data.
The culminations of ruminations gone by and thoughts present still.
For the thoughts that remain, that is where we come from most in life when we express.
Including the thoughts we don't want.
Tucked away inside deep, precious corners of the mind.
So precious, in fact, that if one were to look even slightly it would cause us pain.
Pain that we refuse to permit ourselves to feel.
For in this pain lies something deep and meaningful.
It is what we advocate for when we find ourselves catching the moment to take a stand.
It is us. We who are known as me, myself, and I.
The part of the part of the universe that has been leased to us for life. Literally.
But if we are more than just our bodies and are in fact part of something more.
Then perhaps more is what we need to consider when we take a stand for ourselves.
For more is what this world needs from us if we are to make a difference, a change.
Change is hard and difficult to accept at times, but it is necessary to the cause of being alive and also well.
I'm not sure if that thought's always 'right', but I can sure tell you that it's useful.
That, at least, is my belief.
