A Point of Clarification

As many of you probably do not know, because you do not read my blog, I have decided to change the angle of my posts. Recently I have had many personal revelations in regards to the direction I need to take in my life. Those revelations are the product of trajectories that transpired from my education at the University of Missouri.
Although it is hard to consider that intellectuals still exist outside of an institution, I would like to take the opportunity that exists in having a blog to make that a reality. Being a recent graduate in an economic nightmare that exists today is hard. Putting that into context of other ordeals that take place around the world however minimizes my challenges proposed by an unrelenting reality. With the access to knowledge, in this instance the knowledge I have been given by my own education, in conjunction with technological outlets, I can and will create for myself a job. Although there will be no pay, this job has merit and value that my current job does not have. The job I propose for myself is to take up a role that questions, connects, and projects trends and patterns assembled in society. In doing so, an understanding of society can and will be formulated. I ask of those who may one day look and follow my blog, please be patient. I am new to the blog world, or rather, the serious blog world. I aspire to take on challenges that muster up potential changes. What changes you ask? Realistic changes. The kind of changes that can actually occur. Progress has to breed with reality.
This blog is posed so that small changes created and strung together by "some guy" can find their way in to public discourse and generate leverage for the necessary alterations that society needs. My proposal is very ambitious, even for someone who is very passionate about social institution and the frictions that they create. Although I am not the only one with this passion, I do add another standpoint that only contributes to the fundamental perspective needed to monitor, tract and evaluate societies challenges and changes. The more of 'us' out there, the better. Critically analyzing the world in which we live is crucial. It is a job that every citizen of a nation state should take up. Paid or unpaid, ignoring such a vital position has far bigger repercussions. The economic down turn reveals more opportunity then disaster, at least in my eyes. Now is the time more than ever to turn over a new leaf, not just for myself, but for society at large.
