The Blog Cherry

Alright, so not the most glamorous of photos to start out this blog, but considering the title, I thought it appropriate. That's the Cherry & the Spoon, by the way, slightly obscured by a shitty camera and my favorite people in Minneapolis. I'm the one on the left. We're smiling in this shot... that was one of the better days around here.

I'm a writer, and in some personal mission to strip off the pretentious connotations of that title, this blog is supposed to be my very own version of honesty... whatever that may mean. Hopefully I can sharpen my biting wit in the process.

The concept of blogging escaped me for the longest time. I never quite understood. But recently I've taken it into my head that there is this inherent necessity in all artists to share. Share their art, share their thoughts, share whatever may be remotely interesting, share what is intrinsically fascinating, share and discuss. Share and introduce. And from that, we can all connect.

As convoluted and mildly communistic as that may sound, it's something I believe in--maybe even one of the few somethings that I consistently believe in. So I want to share with you. Can we be enthusiastic about what we experience in this high-flying paradox called life? Please?

I'd like us to share. There's so much to experience, and it's all so exciting. Wouldn't you agree?
