why I'm blogging

Sometimes things occur to me that are actually important. It isn't often, but every once in a while, I'll have a truly significant idea or see a situation in a way that helps me to make some sense of it. These ideas and moments of clarity tend to fade, however, leaving me back where I started, needing to figure out the same thing, again. Maybe a blog will give me the opportunity to capture some of those moments. Maybe it will help me to make progress rather than just get older.
