I hit 50 this past year and decided to blog about that and whatever else moves me.
Here’s a conversation I’ve had many times just before starting to blog. It goes like this:
“So what’s new?”
“Not much. Hey, I’m starting a blog.”
“A what?”
(Typical reply by those my age….the younger generation usually asked about what?)
“A BLOG. It’s going to be a combo of insight and bs!”
“You may have found your calling.”
And so just one year ago I started reading and researching and learning about these digital medias. I did so with a variety or reasons that include participating in a greater community, staying current (if that is possible in this world of amazing speed of dramatic changes), discussing relevant topics I find interesting, and finding the writing itself good exercise for the mind.
What has hitting 50 meant? Lots of things both good and not so good. The commitment toward genuineness and against pretentiousness is my focus. Amazing to me those I am surrounded by that live lives truly in quiet desperation and shallowness.
