I’ve always hated blogs.  For some reason or other, I have always found them overrated, masturbatory, simply self-indulgent media for very self-involved people.  But as of late, I have found it increasingly difficult to sleep.  So tonight (or rather, this early morning), for no reason other than sheer spontanaity, I have decided to start my own.  Why, I’m not really certain.  Perhaps I’ll delete it tomorrow.  Who knows?  In any case, here I am, and here you are.

So, what to say.  I could bitch about how crappy my love life is.  I could gossip about how nude photos leaked of some celebrity and demean them for how dumb or slutty they are.  I could snarkily make crude comments about my fellow peers under the sly guise of anonimity.

But that, in my opinion, is a waste of my time.  And yours.  The world has enough of that.  I wish to start a blog celebrating what is right about people.  These days, everything moves faster, technology is stripping us of our personalities, and it’s getting harder and harder to appreciate the little moments where humanity shines through: a cashier lends you 17 cents you fell shy of while buying your Twix bar, somebody took the time to hold a door for you because your hands are full, or even most extraordinariy, someone has the courage to stick up for another.

Yes, friends.  These ordinary miracles happen everyday.  Many would say that they are not especially noteworthy or significant, but I am here to say that these indeed are the things we need to celebrate these days.  I am here to honor these ordinary people doing extraordinary things.  It may not stick, maybe I’ll be the only one who reads this page’s content, but I am a voice reminding the world that people are capable of doing great things.  And I am now here to document it.
