The Preamble

An imperfect existence is wholly better than a perfect nonexistence.

So, I should probably tell you I am a bit of a perfectionist.  The voice inside my head insists my story starts over three decades ago.  I “have to” start there.  But I should also tell you I have executive dysfunction.  To start at the beginning is a task too daunting for today.  Might be too daunting for… ever. If I am to have any hope of pouring myself into this, I need to follow my joy. Write about the topic that excites me today. This blog, these ideas, have been rattling around in my head for too long.  I need to give them life.  Even if it is only a half life.  Even if I can’t do it “right”.

Because “right” is a fake idea.  There is only better or worse.  And an imperfect existence is wholly better than a perfect nonexistence.

So instead I’ll be handing you puzzle pieces Catch-22 style.  Eventually, if you stick around long enough, a picture will start to form.  Of who I am.  Of what I need to tell you.
