I made an eye-opening realization when I was preparing to graduate college: after 14 years of public school and four years of undergrad, I still didn't feel very smart.

​

I wanted some sort of mechanism to make sure that whether or not I ever sat in a classroom desk again, I wouldn’t stop learning and thinking about things and forming thoughts. And so in May of 2021, I set out on a mission: write one thought at the end of every day. Anything. It could be an essay. It could be a sentence. It could be anything in between about anything in the world. It just had to be something that in that moment I felt was true.

Think of this blog as a verbal map of my brain. A database of all the things I've thunk. Some of it will be abrasive. Some of it will be insightful. Some of it will be uncomfortably sensitive. And some of it will be utterly forgettable. But that's the beautiful thing about brains: they tend to be all these things at once.
