Seconde

With so much going on in the world, it is difficult to ignore the recent uprisings, but to discuss them would be to break my own manifesto. Seeing as it was written only yesterday and my New Year's Resolution lasted under a week, I feel it is time to keep this promise.

I cannot write much today for I have to leave very soon, so I will provide you with a quote, from the legendary Chinese thinker Zhuangzi. It goes as follows:

"A man who knows he is a fool is not a great fool."

Such a simple sentence, but so, so potent in meaning.
Thank you - DM

Première

This is a place for me to share my thoughts. 
I hope to shy away from politics and religion, the two great dividers; I find myself equally unqualified to debate the great leveller, death; I will discuss the only thing I feel I have any right to: myself.

Any feedback is appreciated, be it positive or negative. 
I will try to reply promptly to any questions you might have.

Thank you - DM
