My Almost-daily Journal |
|
| About I love trying out new things, especially when it comes to internet technology. I never really kept a journal, but it's something that I've always wanted to do. Now, everybody will get a chance to look inside my twisted, and somewhat-warped mind.
I've also subscribed to Audio Blog, so a few times a week, I'll leave actual voice blogs. Very cool!XML Newsfeed Previous Posts

A Good Type of CaptivityOne of the thoughts on my mind lately has been that of the utter loss of freedom and independence that a newborn brings to one's life. There was a time where the only thing that consumed my thoughts were wondering whether to buy a dual-core Intel processer, splurge on a new motherboard, or hack-n-slash some orcs in the World of Warcraft. Now I'm noticing that my thoughts are shifting from "selfish" to "selfless". My thoughts are now being consumed to: 1) Making sure that my financial well being is sound and secure in order to provide for my offspring 2) Making sure that my family is financially well-provided should I unexpectedly die 3) Making sure that the home environment is secure, baby-safe, clean and enabled to efficiently and safely raise a child The change of my thought processes in my neural net is so profound, I had to write about it. The loss of freedom and independance is terrifying. On the flip side, losing freedom due to being the sole provider and caregiver of offspring that is 50% similar to myself, and 50% similar to my wife is one of life's gifts that is something that I can't even put into words. Next week, I will have reached one of life's milestones: parenthood. I am smitten with excitement. posted by Dino at 2:38 PM (permanent link)
