Why I Built This Site
A place to keep my observations of the world.
I did not build this site out of nowhere.
If you know someone like this, someone who has had social accounts for years but barely posts, never shares much of their life, and cannot even be bothered to change their profile picture, you may understand me a little.
Why don’t I post?
I have thought about this many times. The answer is probably split in two: half disdain, half defeat.
The disdain comes from a stubborn feeling that I am not quite the same as other people. Maybe my zodiac sign, my birth chart, or whatever symbolic system you prefer, is simply “different” itself. I do not want to drift with the crowd. I do not want to become one more identical voice on the internet.
The defeat is more practical: I have not earned the little pass that the real world hands to people it calls successful.
And yet, I need to record things.
I need to record those messy, unrelated sparks of thought, and this weirdly turbulent life of mine. You might say: why not just keep a diary?
Fair.
But I am lazy. I need a little external pressure. More importantly, I want my thoughts, my perception, and my values to reach a few people, even if it is only a handful.
In real life, I am a solitary person. Or maybe the more accurate word is proud.
If you ask me what my dream is, my answer in primary school was: president of the United Nations. Later I grew up and realized that title was not really the point.
Now, if I am being honest, I would say: I want to save humanity.
Call it childish, naive, spiritual awakening, or simply unrealistic. I don’t mind.
But wanting to save humanity cannot remain a slogan.
At least for now, it may not mean doing something grand. It may simply mean building a place where I can keep my observations of the world.
