The (not so) Genesis

            Since the beginning of time, humans have been curious, curious of what manifests after this life, what will become of our legacies, or what we are eating day to day. I have been plagued with queries like these my whole life. In my younger years I was a child afraid of leaving the comfort of my mothers side, afraid of not being the best at something, but amongst it all, I always kept my ego in front of every situation. I found myself in a position where I wanted to try everything, but never wanted to be shown up by anyone (talk about a shitty perfectionist). As I began to grow, I found that I was good at somethings only because I pushed myself to want to understand. I love learning, not in a textbook kind of way, but to be there in the moment. Up until this moment in life, I have loved, I have traveled, I have studied, I've had plenty of blacked outs, but amongst all the other things in life, I have earned my right of passage in this thing called adulthood.

            Now, what is to come of the next chapter of my life? Skipping forward to my current year, my current time, I am still left with curiosity, with the flame that keeps me burning the small brush to see the passages in lifes landscape. So I created this blog to make sense of my experiences, see how my new life in a new state compares to my past experiences and recollections. What have I learned? What have I yet to discover? There is a whole world out there, and I'm out to experience it.


"Food for thought, lighten up on your mental diet."

People always say that a mind is a terrible thing to waste, but what is a mind really? Are people smarter just because of an education or of our experiences? How valid is the argument of nature vs nurture if we learn to be the people that we are? Should we change it to an experience is a terrible thing to waste?
