Sparse Random Thoughts

So, the whole twenty five random things about yourself is going around Facebook and I thought it wasn’t such a bad oppertunity to be introspective and have a small marker where I was at this time and life. For the most part this blog serves as a place for me to document things I’m thinking about or currently find interesting and occasionally as way to share information with others, so I felt that this was a better spot to store this information than Facebook. So here it goes:

1. I do not believe the human brain is capable of truly random thought.
2. I will stop procrastinating tomorrow.
3. I find that semantics come into play far more often than I would like.
4. I used to be a fundamentalist baptist.
5. I have struggled with suicide.
6. I have trouble dealing failure.
7. I feel that most religion does more harm than good and the the good that is done could be done without it.
8. I believe there is a lot to learn from Buddhism.
9. At this point in life I am an atheist.
10. I spend some nights laying awake wondering what I’m doing my life.
11. I think life would be easier if I were religious again, but I can’t lie to myself.
12. I believe it is human to be selfish, but that we can rise above it.
13. I am most likely a left libertarian.
14. I believe moderation is key to living a happy life.
15. I am always amazed how little I can do and still feel busy.
16. I would like to live somewhere else, but don’t know where, or how we’d go about transplanting.
17. I wish I would have the desire to pursue a career, but I have not found something that feels worth that effort.
18. I find I would rather have tea than coffee anymore.
19. I really enjoy making chili and the fact that I never make it the same twice.
20. I do not understand what my wife sees in me.
21. I prefer snowboarding to skiing, even though skiing was easier for me to learn.
22. I have an easier time getting through fiction than non-fiction. I often wish this was not the case.
23. I wonder what my son thinks of me and how he will think of me when he is an adult.
24. I am better at coming up with ideas than following through with them.
25. I try to live in a manner that affords me the ability to be an open book.
