Intro
In this Blog we will explore creative takes on political and economic systems that are so deeply engraved that many won’t even consider alternatives. We will reflect on the workings of our story driven mind in one week and develop “out of the box” policy ideas in the next. You will discover how I see the world, how it was, how it is and how I think it should be. But as much as this Blog is for myself to put some of my thoughts into words, it is also for you. I will confront you with novel ideas which surprise and confuse you, make you happy, angry, exited or a combination of all these emotions and more. Together we will leave the comfortable pathways of our established thinking patterns and explore the wild, untamed and limitless world of creative thought and youthful idealism. So get your drink of choice, find a comfortable spot and get ready to embark on this journey.

Some Technical Points
  • I will try to post once a week but sometimes it might take a bit longer to develop and formulate my ideas. It is best you subscribe to the Blog to get a Notification when I upload something.
  • The thoughts I share here will sometimes be controversial but no post is written to intentionally offend anyone. I strive to avoid insensitive or triggering content.
  • Not all ideas I share in this Blog reflect my own opinion.
  • I am trying to improve the citations in my Posts but have not been doing a very good job. Please note that most of the information I share is not my own and many of my ideas are inspired by books I read, conversations I had with friends and strangers alike.

A New Start

After a long time of not posting anything, I have decided to breath some life back into this blog meant for creative and sometimes naïve ideas and why there might be merit in believing in them. In the past I have posted my ideas and provided some arguments why they might be a reasonable analysis of the past and present or an outlook for the future. The posts have been theoretical, long, and often far away from the life that you and I are living. This is what I seek to change now that I am reviving this, Blog.

With this new start, I will put the focus on the beauty of ideas, rather than trying the impossible task of elaborating them in every detail. At the same time, I will turn them into stories of discovery, connected to the environment and people through which my ideas emerge and take shape. I hope this will make them easier to understand and more relatable. In addition, I believe that apart from making the reading experience more fun, it will also add depth to the points I seek to draw your attention to. To know in which context an idea emerges and through which interaction it takes shape highlights that whether it is politics or astro-physics, ideas and arguments are always connected to the context in which they from. Accepting and engaging with this idea should improve the overall quality of the posts I will share with you in the future.  

I will finish this revival with some practicalities. Frist, I want to warn you that I am experimenting with writing short stories in which I explore new ideas in a creative fashion. I am not sure yet when the first of these will appear, but I aim to have a mix of the theoretical and narrative based texts in the future. I will also experiment with writing pieces that I do not know if I agree with or not. This is not to be the devils advocate but instead it is a consequence of avoiding the impossibility of thinking every idea through to its last. In the past this has prevented me from sharing some of my thoughts here. I am never certain that what I write here is “true” or “good”, but I will make it explicit if I am experimenting with an idea which I do not know whether I can stand behind or not. I am always looking forward to your comments to get some outside opinions and inspiration to rethink old ideas or explore new ones. Lastly, to motivate myself to write more, I will try to post every second Friday. I think that you benefit from this regularity as much as I do and hope you find the time to read the new post over weekend. It is exciting to revive my Blog and I am looking forward to embarking on this new journey together.
