Mikes Thoughts

my blog is evolving

At some point writing the blog I realized I wanted something different. Not some elaborate Wordpress thing. And not a big time digital garden interposing either continuing thoughts or notes. More like something between. A thing that can hold many things. Some only tentatively related but yet joined by a single persons experiences and moments. Memories that flit through.

Perhaps it’s been Cambodia or my own mortality. Like I feel sometimes there’s this story to be told. This basic thing that crosses all the writing. This commonality. Like all the things touch in some almost invisible Venn diagram. Those little overlapping places connect and let me see through.

Recently I visited Banteay Samré temple. I had not been here before. Really liked going.

Going to a new temple and one that is not so far made me realize that my every day stories are kinda like that too. They are little places I find in or outside. Some seem so close like this temple. Others often feel galaxies away. It’s good though to find the close places and then from that find where all my connections are outward, to the left or right, sideways.

What I want

I want to write things which lead to others. To find the commons in the places. Where things and places and people have come together or remain apart. This must be this linking. This idea so well inflected here. So the good part is how to get from here to there. There is no distance to travel. I think every blog is this same thing. Hidden between posts and permalinks. This evolving thing where words and worlds just are seen as the same continuum but at different entry markers.

So welcome. Mikes Thoughts becomes nothing more. No big time changes in platform. No second brains or chances. Just me writing the things I love.

Worth it right? Let’s have a beer. Your treat.
