Opinions, like diapers, are subject to change ...

... and in some cases, for the same reason - after a while, they start to stink. I found that my views have matured as I grow older, in some cases completly reversing what I had believed before. At the same time, looking back at my opinions as a child, an adolecent, and as a newly fledged adult, I find the roots of my beliefs don't really change.

  • I believe that despite the inherant unfairness of the world, striving for fairness - in our thoughts, in our deeds, and in our lives - is a worthwhile endevor.
  • I believe that we are all solely responsible for the choices we make and for the consequences of those choices.
  • I believe that we are all created from - for lack of a better phrasing - Divinity, that this Divinity unites us and at the same time sets us apart.

Everything else is subject to change.

Your mileage may vary,
Your thoughts may carry
You far from my point of view.
I don't ask you to agree.
I don't think we should be
Clones, one of each other.
