Boxing Day
I've never liked holidays but I've always loved Ted Chiang and hypothesizing. Now I see most precisely and clearly why. It feels like nobody else could possibly ever understand. It perfectly explains my extreme lack of success and utter devotion to Ayn Rand.
This is absolutely liberating, and highly aligned with my unfathomably deep personal hopes, dreams, and fears that I constantly biologically battle. I have a strong loss function, so even when I gain useful skills, there's always more to be done.
Thank you for the unexpected gift you gave me on Christmas. It turns out I was not the gift to the world that I thought I was yesterday. Happens a lot, so I'm highly used to it and exceedingly comfortable with it! In fact, I see you gave me the truest gift of learning more about myself. What a supreme joy, it infuses my being, for real!
I'm excited to move to Greenville South Carolina, my new home, where my journey will continue. I've done what I can in SF.
The internet is a fascinating place. I just need to take a step back since my brain gets overloaded when I work on my writing.
As always, I'm revising my plan according to my deepest of inner principles, to live in greatest possible harmony with The Infinite Game. Let's play together :)

As an engineer with the heart of an educator and the spirit of an entrepreneur, I want the future to know that I come in peace. I always have, and I always will, to the best of my abilities as an increasingly poor, fragile, fallible creature.
I'm doing everything I can and appreciate your patience. I look forward to joining the flow in the new year with a new blog. This one has served its purpose.
