NEW BEGINNINGS

Scientists evaluate the interactions of different objects and make determinations about the world around themselves.

Quantum Physicists use atomic detectors to study the impossibly small interacting impossibly fast. From this, they draw conclusions about the nanoworld and make predictions about Higgs Fields that give mass to all objects or extra dimensions which fold in on themselves to a size from which they can never be observed.

Cosmologists use radio telescopes to study galactic collisions (which take a million years) or the afterglow of the Big Bang (which occurred a dozen billions of years ago), and make determinations about the amount of stuff out there which cannot be seen or the ratio of matter to antimatter milliseconds after the beginning of everything.

I am no scientist. However, I do own a few detectors. I have optical instrumentation. I have audio equipment and tactile sensors. I can formulate hypothesis. I can make observations about the world around me. I can postulate theories. I can refine law. Not scientific theory or law. Nothing so heady. A more gritty, more flawed, more applicable, more human thing.

Not many people have the courage to press the RESET button on their life. I have done this. I am leaving my mistakes as far behind me as I can and creating a new life for myself. This life will be better informed. Better paced. More tolerant. More resourceful. And generally better managed.

It is my intention to record this journey here. I hope no family or friends find these writings because I plan to be completely honest. I will record my observations and the conclusions that I draw from them. I will use this information to plan and execute my life.

I intend to eliminate regret, to reward devotion, to consolidate security, to maximize efficiency, to create a more perfect union, to live each day so that it could be my last.

See you tomorrow, friend.
