I don't often throw quotes around, I feel they are unoriginal and often off-topic. However, every now and again I find one that resonates with me or with my ideals. In light of the fact that this blog is undergoing some serious topical evolution, I thought it would be an appropriate time to post one of my favorite quotes for you now:
"The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man." - George Bernard Shaw

From the Mouths of Others...
I've taken a short hiatus from this already on-and-off blog to get some things accomplished elsewhere online; you can now visit me at Twitter (@jackstorey) as well as find Modern Revival Media on far too many social networks as well (visit their blog @ http://modernrevivalmedia.blogspot.com for more information on that.) But, now I'm back and feeling the importance of keeping up on this area of my life. Blogging has suddenly begun to make a whole lot of good sense to me.
That being said, I want to make it more interactive. I hate talking/writing at people and would like to hear from you and as many other people as we can get involved. I figure that this is still a solid forum for this, but that we do need to find some online solutions (like Google Documents) that allow us to create shared content that can be updated by all and edited by all as well (so, a Wiki, really...but where should we take it?)
I want to start discussing solutions; solutions is my new keyword. Not keyword like 'online keyword' but keyword as in LIFE KEYWORD. I've realized that I'm no better than anyone else when all I do is prattle on about what's wrong with the world and offer no SOLUTION(s) to the problems. I want to be a solution-based individual from here on and I want you all to join me. Together we may very well become an active part of the overall solution and that, to me, would be the very best possible outcome.
The worst case: we swap some inspiring concepts and move forward in our own ways to do whatever it is we're built to do. That doesn't sound so bad, does it?
