My First Blog

Welcome to the blog of Chris! It will most likely be unfocused and will surely lack any sense of direction, save forward. However jumbled and random my posts may be, hopefully the general theme will be that, in life, we all move forward whether through our own wishes or through others’. This may turn out to be a documentary of the human experience, narrated by me.

And who am I? I am your average Joe. Well, Chris I guess. I have hobbies, I have pets, I have pet peeves, and I have weaknesses. I love, I’ve been hated, and I have family and friends. You’ll probably pick up the details later, and maybe you even know a little bit about me already. Either way, my hope is to share my experiences to enrich the lives of others.

“So Chris, you’re just looking to inspire, to woo or to fascinate?” No, no, and no. We all gain priceless wisdom from the people closest to us in our everyday lives, and there’s no substitute for this. But “close” doesn’t necessarily mean close in proximity. Although technology seems to weave an extra layer of complexity into our already stressed lives, something beautiful has been born. With technology such as the internet, we can all be close though miles or even oceans may separate us geographically. No, I’m looking to learn from this blog. I’m looking to learn about myself, about others, but most of all about the human experience, of which we’re each a critical part.

That’s not to say my posts will all be deep and philosophical. After all, I do have hobbies, namely running and cooking. I’m not sure if I eat to run or run to eat, but I am sure that I love to do both. I also have a beautiful, intelligent wife whom I admire to no end, and our families are wonderful as well. More to come on that, though.

I guess that’s it for now. Gotta run.
