Fixing a pocket

2023-01-07

I've been thinking a lot about knowledge. I feel like a kid collecting shells at the beach with a hole in my pocket.

If I check one the shell I know it's there or if it has slipped out of my pocket. If I keep the shell in my hand I can keep it from falling out of my pocket. But alas, I have but two hands and can only hold so many shells.

So what do I do? Well, obviously I fix the pocket but how?

Enough of the metaphor, the shells are things that I know and I'm tired of having them slip through my fingers.

While there are a few stratagies for this with things like a second brain but I think that is useful for reference, patching the pocket, but let's go a step further. Let's reinforce the pocket. Let's take the things I know, think about them, digest them, and write them down.

In a blog! And that is exactly what I plan to do.
