How best to describe my purpose in filling this blog.

To be able to describe in words my action of writing, my motivational drive for writing something, anything, I had to research Niccolo Machiavelli from his introduction,  and quote it:  "I pour myself out as fully as I can in meditation on the subject" of learning from life experience.

So then, this blog and the posts I populate it with -- is my pouring myself out as fully as I can in meditating on the subject of lessons learned from life experience.  I draw from history lessons that people born before us had to learn the hard way more often than the easy way.  I will also draw upon past biographies of those who were smart enough to listen to others before acting and saved themselves much grief.
