Not everything fits neatly into a category, and some things should not have to.

This is where I write about the larger questions — about how to live attentively, what it means to pursue quality in small things, why certain ideas keep returning, and what I am still trying to work out. Call it personal philosophy, or simply thinking out loud.

These posts are slower and more considered than the rest of the site. They are not written to be useful in any immediate sense. They are written because thinking on the page is how I think at all, and because occasionally someone reads one and says it put words to something they had been carrying around for a while — and that feels like reason enough.
