Watched Neon Genesis Evangelion the other night. Still thinking about the colors and moods.

You should blog! I've shared my thoughts on why before. Here's my new favorite introduction to why you should do it, in Q&A style from Marc Weidenbaum over at Disquiet.

Here's my favorite bit on the difference between social media and blogging:

Q: Why would I blog if I get more feedback on social media than I do whenever I’ve blogged?

A: It’s in the terminology: Social media is “social.” Blogs are “web logs.” Social media expects feedback (not just comments, but likes and follows). Blogs are you getting your ideas down; feedback is a byproduct, not a goal.

Vocation, even in the most humble of circumstances, is a summons to what is divine. Perhaps it is the divinity in us that wishes to be in accord with a larger divinity. Ultimately, our vocation is to become ourselves, in the thousand, thousand variants we are.
