Welcome to Things I See As Wrong

I wnated to keep things light for the first entry into this random idea blog. I felt there was no real place I could compile all of my thoughts and begin to expand and refine my writing. I've been away from it for awhile and wanted to start fresh. Personally, as a University educated person in North America I am finally at a point in my life where I was old enough to see the results of some of the political and social experiments disguised as policies but I was young enough to realize there was still some hope to change our direction.

These thoughts are not new. I've had these thoughts for a long time. I was only driven enough to document them once I saw the results and I often times found myself saying, "I mentioned X years ago that the result would be that!." It happened too many times. I would speak in my University classes where I finished my degree in Politics, I would speak in my social groups, I would speak in the limited political circles I was invited to, I would speak whenever the subject came up. There was always someone in those circles to tell me I wasn't old or experienced enough to know that would be the result. I became frustrated.

I am the son of a politician as well. I've traveled in the circles as a child and heard the speeches. I've studied Politics. I've studied Political Science. I've studied Philosophy. Where my mind seemed to take me was into a realm of Political Philosophy. I didn't appreciate Politics as a Science but I sure loved and appreciated the Philosophy of Politics. I studied Aristotle, Socrates, Kant, Heidegger, Ellul, and read literature and listened to the lyrics of our modern day poets we call musicians. I know where my knowledge lies and I know what my instincts taught me as I traveled the world and opened my eyes to new challenges. I survived them all and let the world show me her truths.

I never stop learning. I want to learn more. I can only learn by now sharing. And this is the idea behind my blog. I want to express my instincts and my knowledge. I want others to learn. I want others to share. And most importantly, I want to learn and grow my knowledge.
