“For even the very wise cannot see all ends,” (The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring). I am not wise, and I certainly cannot see an end. Which is why I decided to write this blog.

Counseling is about process, not content. Lately, I’ve been so caught up in the content of my life that I haven’t taken the time to process what that content might mean. It’s one thing to walk along a road blindly. It’s an entirely different thing to walk along a road and notice that the trees are turning colors or that you’ve wandered off the beaten path.
So, the point of this blog is to try to pull together the sundry contents of my drawers into something resembling a cohesive whole. It will be a processing of the things I learn in school (such as that I cry at the drop of a hat), the things that interest me (healthy eating, fitness, psychotherapy and religion) and the things that I enjoy doing (running, working out, playing video games, cooking).
Maybe what I am writing is less of a blog and more of a journal. It is quite probable that a lot of what I write should not be broadcast to everyone with a search engine. But one thing I know is that I have rigid boundaries. As I open, so shall I close.
“The wide world is all about you: you can fence yourselves in, but you cannot for ever fence it out.”
