I'm having a quarter-life crisis.

… and it’s kind of annoying.  Today is my 25th birthday.  It’s time for a few changes.

I’ve never done a good job of writing blog posts on a regular basis.  Partly because it’s always been a hassle.  Partly because I was never sure of what to write.  Partly because I was afraid of what people would think about what I write.

So, let’s change that.  Let’s make it easy to post (by using Tumblr).  Let’s just link to whatever it is that catches my eye throughout the day.  Let’s just stop caring what everyone else thinks.

I’ve (finally) recognized that I’ve been burnt out for the last year and a half.  I stopped having fun.  I created out of necessity rather than pleasure, and that road leads to nowhere.

That’s changed lately though.  Now it’s once again about carving instead of assembling.  I’m enjoying it.  First time in awhile.

I’ve realized that it’s more about running a marathon than sprinting.  That each leg of the journey is just as important as the one before it and the one to come, but you might as well make the most of where you’re at right now.

I’m tired of driving around with one headlight.  Let’s go all in.
