I’m going on hunch, but I’d say that you live, what Joseph Campbell calls, “your bliss”. I can tell you’re from the UK. You said uni, not university. That’s a dead giveaway.
I actually live in California believe it or not. I do work with a bunch of UK lads though so I've adopted some of their language haha.
I do think I live my bliss. It's been something I've learned over time. Specifically, organizing and managing my life in a way that work feels like play. I'm always learning something and exploring my interests. Life is never boring.
As far as what inspired me to start this blog, it was really just a desire to explore ideas and concepts from the past that can allow us to make sense of our current world. I think we're entering a fascinating new paradigm and there is an opportunity to integrate traditions and ideas from the past into this new and exciting world.
As the world devolves into ever deepening chaos, I see greater and greater opportunity to live from one’s center and bliss, not by the sway of the Social Order. It may seem rather grotesque and morbid on my part, but when COVID-19 hit the world, I felt a sense of relief, knowing that the world as we had known it was coming to an end. The foundations were cracking permitting any free spirit to create his or her own vision of the future and world, even in the midst of catastrophe. Catastrophic events are the catalyst for renewal and of a vision.
About five years ago, when I was 47 years old I started learning Koine Greek on my own. I’m still at it. Because Classical Greek is so similar I also am learning that as well. I look forward to it everyday. I enjoy how language works. I’m learning to see connections between our language, English and Greek.
I don’t recall when the last time I was ever bored in my life. My mind has to be active.

What inspired you to start writing your blog?
Apologies for the late reply Dmitri.

By the way, thank you very much for the support. It really means a lot to me!
