Purpose

    Ever get lost in one of those reality shows about hoarders?  Suddenly, you're looking at your own stuff like, "Why am I keeping this s***?"  It's like a wake up call to reassess what's really important to hold onto, but in the midst of all that clutter, there are nuggets of wisdom, the kind that make you reflect on your journey.  Take, for example, the antecedent of this blog: an essay I wrote back in eleventh grade.  In that… youthful prose, I wrote passionately about embracing education, seeing it as a never ending adventure.  I still can recall my teacher's comment, praising my aspiration to be a lifelong learner.  Back then, I couldn't quite claim that title for myself, but her words made an impact none the less.

    Now, a year out of college, I find myself needing a reminder of that passion for knowledge.  It's not like I've stopped learning, far from it, but somewhere along the way, I lost that spark, that thrill of discovery.  And if I'm being honest, a lot of that disillusionment comes from my time in the grind that is modern academia.  But hey, we'll save that rant for another day.  For now, let's talk about the heart of this blog, la raison d'être.

    This blog is my way of reigniting that love for learning, hence the name Relearning How to Love Learning.  In short, it's about my projects, passions, and pursuit of becoming a lifelong learner.

    Here, you'll find a mishmash of topics reflecting my wide array of interests.  I'm captivated by the multifaceted realms of technology, classical literature, media production, natural science, and much more.  It's a mixtape of curiosity and fascination, each track pulling me deeper into the rabbit hole of knowledge.  In a world that loves specialists, my grab bag of interests might raise some eyebrows, but I proudly embrace the spirit of the Renaissance man, finding beauty in exploring it all.

    This blog is my compass and my diary as I chase down the dream of being a modern-day polymath.  It's a digital canvas where I paint the journey of my mind and invite you to come along for the ride.  Who's this invite for?  Well, there's no VIP list.  I'm tossing it out into the digital cosmos, hoping it lands in the hands of fellow seekers like you.  So, dear reader, I'm not just offering words on a screen, I'm inviting you to dive into the unknown.  Maybe it'll inspire you to sign up for a class, crack open that dusty book, or step outside your comfort zone.  This isn't just about consuming content; it's about getting your hands dirty in the world and fostering a thirst for lifelong learning.

    So, let's relearn how to love learning, together.
