Nota Bene

I do not necessarily agree with everything you may find on this blog. If they are my words, then yes, I said them because I believe they are either true or, at least, the best I can do at the moment. Maybe my understanding, and opinion, will change as new information and experience come along.

That said, quotes from other sources are sometimes included as challenges to my way of thinking. While I don't agree with what they say, I include them because I know that confirmation bias is real. If I don't challenge my own thoughts, I will never make any progress.

===============

This is a personal blog, meant for recording my studies. I'm putting it out here to keep a record for myself that I can look back on in the years to come.

Comments and questions are welcome, if any lonely soul finds this blog and feels the need, but they aren't the goal of this record.
