A Little New Thing

This is a new blog. It is not a platform for political rant, nor is it an online diary. It is not a vehicle for me to express my opinions on popular culture, to post a gallery of pictures, to create an artificial public image of myself. This blog is a little, new thing. A small voice of musing amidst the din of a deeply vocal culture. You will find no empty optimism here, but you will find authentic joy. I will never promote a grin-and-bear-it stoicism, but I will encourage you to feel deeply. I am not writing because I believe that my perspectives will change the world, I am more of a realist than that. I write because I love it, because I relish it, because I am an artist and the words bubble up inside me and must, must be put on paper. I write because I am an artist. My paint – words. My canvas – you. I’m just a little, new voice amid bigger, older voices with more to say, and I speak of little things. All the lovely little things of the world.
