Simply put, I'm always thinking. Sometimes this can be a good thing, and sometimes it just plain sucks. With that being said, I've decided to finally create some sort of channel to articulate my thoughts, as this is more or less therapeutic for myself (although I hope there is someone out there who might find the whole work intriguing).
I've titled this blog "Blinded by Hindsight," and the meaning of this phrase is much deeper for me than a flippant play on words. A few nights ago I proposed a question to myself that stated: Is hindsight clearer than knowing in full? There is no such thing as hindsight to God, but from a human perspective, I would say the answer to that question is yes. One can know something in full in the present but applying this learned knowledge is more or less a future or continuing action that spans the rest of one's life on earth. So I hope to learn from hindsight, despite the fact that it often provides clarity for one situation while perplexing, or blinding another.
Now not every entry here will be serious and thought-provoking, but I hope that the work as a whole will be a teaching tool of some sorts and, if nothing else, an interesting perspective on differing matters. Along the way I plan to use lyrics to songs, quotes from movies, thoughts from friends, and anything else that might create some pattern of thought in my head. I'll stop rambling now to thank you for reading, and I would encourage you to stop by again in the future if you were even in the least bit interested in what I have to say.
