So I've changed alot So I've sort of decided I need a return to the world of the intellectual!
I'm feeling a bit adrift lately, so I think getting back to getting on here every now and then where I need to justify my thoughts to someone other than me - because when I don't they become insular and invalid.
So in the last 12 months, a lot has changed. As in everything has changed, I've really experienced life and I have new ideas, values and opinions. My old posts are gonna be rather ?detrimental? to my new ones, but we'll just ignore them for now.
To be honest, when I left, it was for several reasons. One was that I had so much on, I didn't really want to be spending all my time on this site. Another was that debate was becoming frustrating and stale - there were the polars; smooth-talking conservatives who provided only half the information and leftist teens who couldn't string a proper sentence together. Neither were given valid arguments or any justice to their opinions. This was repetitive and frustrating, and I was finding it difficult to provide any debate, as it was all so muddled. So I left, hoping that time in the 'real world' would provide me the knowledge to return one day. What I found however, was that while a lot of opinions were refined and my knowledge expanded, I still couldn't answer the same questions I had before regarding politics, etc.
So long story short, here I am! Back and ready to mingle a little bit! |
