Welcome to Notes from David!
This blog is my Internet space for organizing and evolving my thoughts on the human condition, including the trials and tribulations of my own personal experiences. Here you will find my observations, opinions, theories, musings, fiction, and poetry; all of which embrace my personal slant on the world. The overall theme of my work is human nature, but as you will discover, I’m not averse to exploring unrelated topics as well.
My writing here is and will be many things, including serious, humorous, hopeful, anxious, dark, spiritual, intellectual, and sometimes childish, if making my point calls for that voice.
“Some” of the posts here are rewrites of contributions I’ve made to social media during the past several years. Social media tends to be a one hour affair, where tweets and posts quickly descend the news feeds, becoming virtually invisible and inaccessible to the majority of readers. Thus, I plan to retrieve and make available long forgotten posts that continue to resonate with my beliefs.
In addition, you will notice that many posts are categorized as Reposts. These represent posts that were first published on my older blog. I’ve moved these over to Notes from David, so that the full thematic extent of my work can be accessed and interpreted in one place.
As for my background, I’m just a guy who ponders the vicissitudes of life. In another time and place, I could have been a professor of philosophy or a psychoanalyst, but this lifetime had other plans for me, as I struggle profoundly with anxiety and depression. This has been both a blessing and a curse, as it has given me some unique insights into the human condition, but at a personal cost as well. Yet, I feel grateful for having this opportunity to share with you through this blog.
Thanks for reading!
David
