A simple introduction is never enough

I'm about as pretentious as the title of this post. Or at least I'd like to be. It's a goal, I'm getting there.

I'm 23 years old, pretty happy right now, heading into the new year. I've been thinking a lot about balance these days, and how to obtain it, so that's probably what I'm gonna be writing about first and foremost.

Also, I'm a crypto enthusiast. Love different projects like icx, omg, neo, hst, etc. Might be talking about those as well, and anything new that catches my eye.

I'd like to write very technically about certain things, and generally about other things. I think there is value to combining high art and low art. Even in article writing. There is value to simply explaining something, like bullet point lists, and there is value to meandering. I'll leave you to guess what I'm trying to do here.

I really love steemit though, and would like to see this community grow. I think there is something very political about supporting a platform that pays users for their concert. It feels like youtube in it's early stages, and being a first adopter would be awesome. There are also questions about how steemit will develop, with things like censorship, an evolving payment structure and it's relation to the crypto market in general, that I will be interested in discussing and reading about.

Lastly, as a man obsessed with regimens, and finding the perfect one for me , I'll leave you all with a badass picture of Yukio Mishima, who is a great writer and one of my philosophical heroes because he tried to combine being an intellectual with being a doer. Check him out.

I will leave you all with a line by the great man.

“Dreams, memories, the sacred--they are all alike in that they are beyond our grasp. Once we are even marginally separated from what we can touch, the object is sanctified; it acquires the beauty of the unattainable, the quality of the miraculous. Everything, really, has this quality of sacredness, but we can desecrate it at a touch. How strange man is! His touch defiles and yet he contains the source of miracles.”

It feels great to be part of the community.
