  • Thesis? … DONE!

    After working on this thesis for, well, let’s face it, WAY too long, I am finally DONE.   It’s actually kind of hard to believe, and I’m pretty sure that my wife was thinking that this day wouldn’t actually arrive.  I should have made a bet.

    Basically what this means is that in the next… um, period of time, I will be converting my thesis and posting it on the spiritalchemy.com site.  Then I guess the question is, will anyone want to read 240 pages online?  Probably not, which is why I have a PDF version ready to go as well.  Boy am I optimistic!

    I also get to categorize this entry as relevant to all my included categories except for poetry, as my thesis contains original work in all the other areas – let’s hear it for generalists!

    Oh, in case you were wondering, I decided to call it: The Elements as an Archetype of Transformation: an Exploration of Earth, Water, Air, and Fire.  You can get a basic idea of the table of contents (not quite updated to match the final version) at https://spiritalchemy.com/thesis.html.

  • Don’t look now!

    Well here is the inaugural post of a new blog.

    Does the world need another blog by a random guy?  Of course not.  But then again, what if this blog isn’t for the world?  Maybe it’s a way to see myself through a new lens.  Maybe, like any lens, it works both ways, and I can use it to project as well.

    Maybe all of that is irrelevant, because as of yet there is no express purpose that i have in mind for this blog.  Maybe that means that what it is now will change based on what happens to this space in the future.  Maybe your reading of this post in the future (now?) changes what I am writing in the past (which is, of course, now).

    Maybe you need to go get some coffee and read the regular newspaper if this gives you a headache, because it’s only going to get worse…
