...so said Surrac of Vulcan in a most exellent piece of Sci-Fi writting. The basic point thereof being that motivations effect and in fact infect (say that 3 times fast, bub) the process and result(s) of our actions. So what are my desired processes and results?
Well the process seems self-evident; I want to use this blog to make myself heard by the largest number of my fellow sentients possible. The result I want is to have input in the world and, if I am honest, to have a measurable effect on the rest of you. I suspect we all do, if we are honest.
Further questions are then raised; Why this medium and not another? Why would I (or anyone else for that matter) want to have a hand in the affairs of others? The former of these two is easily dealt with; I haven't the time or resources to use any other medium...except possibly standing in the street yelling. Town-criers have been hard put for steady work these days though, what with all the competition for air-time from random lunatics who meander about loudly declaiming the end of civilization or the entire world for free. As for why one might want to effect the lives or thoughts of others? That, I must uncomfortably admit, is a harder nut to crack and may have something to do with my general interest in god-like power over the affairs of mortals. Unfortunately I haven't yet won a bid for any meaningful elected office and so I must content myself with observing the world and then not-so-quietly making remarks off-stage.
You, dear reader, have the dubious pleasure of experiencing this.
Tickets please.
