Why Am I doing this?

This is it. I'm starting a blog. Throughout this blogging experience I have a few goals. Goal number one is to be better at articulating my thoughts . As I grow in this area I will be better at conveying certain ideas to others, and even to myself. Another goal of mine is to encourage others to vent their thoughts as well. I'd like to think that if we all talked about our thoughts and ideas...or even our feelings , we might just see a glimpse of where everyone is coming from. Once we start to see where others are coming from, maybe...just maybe that invisible barrier that seems to divide us all will slowly start to fade. Some might call that wishful thinking, maybe it is. Actually, wishful thinking is believing that my grammar will improve throughout this process. Anyways. My last hope for this blog is that it will be of help to someone. I recently have been reading writings from an old high school acquaintance who is doing exactly this. Not only did it push me to do the same, but it was a pleasure to dive into the thoughts of someone I hadn't known. By no means do I think I'm a skilled writer or some awe inspiring person filled with wisdom. With that said, I do think some of my thoughts could help others, even the smallest bit. Or maybe you will read an upcoming post and down right disagree with me, that's good too. If everyone agreed on everything,  life would be awfully bland. I don't have any idea how often I'll post or how long I'll keep this up. Feel free to comment about what you like, dislike, or absolutely hate. My first actual post will be up soon.

DISCLAIMER: I do not think that the ideas, feelings, and beliefs that I will write about will all be concrete. What I mean by that is that I as a human am subject to change. With me changing this means that how I think and what I think will also be subject to change. In other words, I may write something and later come back only to recant it.
