About

Welcome to my homebase. The term homebase when used in reference to a site may be ambiguous. Do I live here, spending every waking moment in the confines of this site? Not quite. This is more just a medium for me to reign in my thoughts and map them to text. This includes the tangible and intangible by-products of my time spent building things.

One of my core beliefs is that everyone is a builder. We're all building something, and it's important as hell that we show it to the world. It doesn't matter if it's perfect. It doesn't even matter if it's complete. You spent time building something, and that's always something to be proud of.

Through my musings, I hope to tell stories. And through my creations, I hope to make a difference in at least one person's life. I aspire to build things that are experienced, and not just used by people.

As with everything, this will always be a work-in-progress. Launching this in the first place took so much out of me in terms of having to accept a lack of perfection. Done is better than perfect is an adage I've come to accept over the years, especially in the army. While perfectionism is always the basis, it should never work against completionism. There must exist a healthy tension between the two for the world to be in balance, as all things should be.

I will chronicle the creation of this site in a musing, and will update this sentence linking back to it once it's ready.
