First post: What ARE you thinking?

"How is it possible to bring order out of memory?"

Beryl Markham opens my favorite book, "West With the Night" with that huge question.

Haven't read it? You must ... you really must.

Anyway, I didn't start this effort to quote from others.

I'm not certain why, but at least part of the reason is that I am attempting to bring order out of memory.

To bring order to my current thoughts.

To bring order to my ambitions and fears for the future.

Perhaps by setting these thoughts in silicon, and forcing myself to use the structure required by the written word, I can achieve order ... whatever that may be. It may even be that order isn't a desirable outcome ... I don't think order is in my nature, but that too, is another question.

So, why?
To vent.

To share.

To amuse.

To entertain.

To teach.

To learn.
