This is now what’s on the RealityFragments About page, but I figured it’s a good enough re-introduction since I’ve crossed 500 posts on this site! Woohoo!

We’re both here, you and I, neighbors in space and time.

Both of us are the legacy of those that came before us, living memory of what was and a potential for what will be.

In this moment, right here, right now, we are connected.

These words in this moment of time create a link between our lives and our spheres of influence. They are both a gateway and a nexus connecting ourselves and the living memory we are, influencing our separate and aggregate futures. We are both ourselves mediums and messages.

The door between us now opened, we have the capacity to influence each other and, should we decide, to make each other better and make our futures just a little better.

Maybe you came here for some advice or direction. Maybe you feel stuck in the traffic of life while people with laser pointers are trying to curate your destination. Maybe you’re seeking a way to decorate your canvas of time, or trying to find some meaning. Maybe your hope has faded and you found something of comfort, or maybe you’re simply lost – and being lost is not a bad thing.

I don’t know how you got here, but I am glad you are. We live in an amazing world, and I try to write about the bits I observe and think about. You’re welcome to chime in.

Maybe you’ll find something you like, and maybe you’ll leave a comment so that I know that. Maybe you’ll find something worth sharing with a friend, on social media or otherwise.

I am writing this from the past according to calendar and clock, yet we are likely new to each other. Technology has afforded us this ability, beyond the cave paintings and etched stones of yesteryear. We have come a long way, through a deluge of paper and ink and the technology of language itself.

We are… connected, if only just this once. Hopefully more than once. Hopefully you found something of value and come back.

That’s what RealityFragments is about. It fits no genre other than that, it’s about being human and all that comes with it as best as I can communicate. It’s about the little pieces of our world that make us whole yet fragmented, parts of a larger puzzle where we have not yet found the flat pieces to see where the edge is.
