Perfect Storm
Imagine yourself the captain of a boat with a group of friends and family. You are caught out in a torrential storm of epic proportions. You’ve never seen anything like it in all of your years sailing amongst the waves. Amid the midst, rain, hail, and confusion, you see a titanic wave that you know will surely swallow your small boat and crew whole and push you to the deepest depths of the seaa where the souls of sailors of yore reside. Everyone on the boat screams that you should turn the boat around at full throttle and try to outrun the wave. Your own weary mind starts playing the…

Writing
Some people have asked me why I stopped running a blog and writing regularly. I managed a blog and wrote regularly from 2005 through to 2013, almost a decade. I also produced a podcast with friends from 2005 to 2012. At the time of the ending of the blog and podcast, I was finishing up my last year of University. To put it mildly, I was burn out. The toll of a full-time job, academic life (sleepless nights with books and Earl Grey), a social life, the blog, and the podcast was too much. Since giving all of that up, I finished up my college days and worked for various…
