Introduction, Overal Purpose for Blog


My blog is my interpretation of worldly and spiritual phenomenons and my own attempt to better understand them. Each day I grow and learn from the great works of others. I hope to repackage what I learn in this blog and impart this knowledge to others.

Blogs are great. I think everyone would benefit from having their own journals intended to better one 's self, acquire knowledge and further discovery.
With a journal/blog You get the benefit of archiving what are priceless and often times consuming conceptual attainments/new reaches in understanding of creation/nature.
Its a lot like doing math. While doing it in your head is faster its not always going to be as accurate a result. I for one am not good at doing math in my head. I'd like to think I'm good at thinking, or that thinking in my head is not as prone to arriving at erroneous conclusions as is often the case when I'm number crunching in my head.
When I do math its helps me tremendously to write it down. I come to the answer By putting my thoughts down I also find that I can find more concrete answers.
I find that writing helps me think better. It forces me to have a better grasp of the tools that my language has to offer. The stronger my mastery of language is the better I’ll be at expressing thoughts.

I chose the title epiphany lost because one of the thing I love most is whilst thinking about a subject and applying my own critical thinking to it, I love arriving at that juncture when a series of different thoughts meet and collide to form an epiphany. Its a great moment, I believe the way we see the world changes with each new epiphany we have.
The very reason for this blog is to help me better understand what I learn by putting it down which helps me better digest things.
Epiphany Lost because I'm trying to find, regain, and bolster what sacred knowledge is out there awaiting to be found. I've also often felt an epiphany but when it came to writing it down I would have forgotten it. I hope this blog will help me avoid such dreadful moments. The inability to retrieve a lost epiphany is the worst. I usually try and shrugs them off as being not so mind shattering an epiphany.

I also find it interesting to note that once an epiphany has been made we often upon reexamining it find less there then the magnitude we initially made it out to be.
I like this draw a parallel with the effort that went into devising a new invention, or discovery made. Prior to the discover the inventor might be puzzled as to how to create their desired . Some might be probing for a solutions for years.
Until hard work and mental crunches/sit ups (figuratively speaking) finally gets them to connect the dots.
We now take these invention for granted, and do not think much of their inventions at times. But were we presented with the same means and knowledge they were met with at the time we would likely find ourselves dumbfounded.
