A growing garden of thoughts

LINKS I find myself captivated by the art of tracing links, by links I mean connections, a fragment of something larger, that points to an external source and once you hook onto that link, it connects your to an even larger network of knowledge, that takes you down uncharted paths.

I could be reading something in books or in a wikipedia entrance, or it's something I heard through a friend, and instantly I become taken over by this fragment, I have to follow the lead, as if pulling a thread unable to let go, down the rabbit-hole it leads to one to new insights, unknown authors, obscure references, new countries, other voices, islands of knowledge.

Sometimes a single piece of information changes everything you thought you knew, but it gives you this feeling because you know that something in you, needs to change.

As of writing this, the only link in the top navigation bar is a link to the frontpage called "Home", I like this convention. It allows you to get lost, with the reassurance that it does not matter where the next step may take you, you will always find Home.
