A Brief Preface

Hello all! I hope your holidays went well. I know I haven't blogged in a while. I have two reasons for writing this.

One, a brief update. This week I started my spring semester. Things have been going well, but I have only had one class. This upcoming week I have both classes, work, and I am starting my research assistantship. Coincidentally, this week also marks one year since I graduated from York. Last year, when I was in York, I couldn't possibly have imagined I'd be in another graduate program. It helps me remember how it is impossible to know where you are going to be in a year. (However, I know I'll be in Boston next year.) What I do know is that I miss York and my friends dearly.

Two, the preface bit. Over break, I was thinking about ethics and morals and living. So I thought I'd blog about it. Rather than just write it and post it, I felt I should write an update and a warning. This part is the warning. The blog I post in the next few days is rather long (roughly 1,400 words). It is mostly questions and explanations of how I've been thinking. I'm not apologizing. I have learned that most of the time there are not answers to questions, because there really is not Truth, and quite often there are only complications.

For those of you who read the upcoming blog, thanks. And if you have any ideas, I'd love to hear them.
