cynosure

Today is the modest half-birthday of this little journal, site, whatever it’s called. First, some sentimental stuff: I started this to try to rediscover a way I could express myself to relate to the world. I used to write anything and everything in my old journal (which lasted 5+ years!), but my goal changed in what I wanted for this site– more specifically, this domain. RVXN.org was going to be a site of revolution– most specifically, love revolution. I wanted to write a love letter to every individual in the world.

I’ve realized that impacting the world takes small steps, and unexpectedly, my journal became the vessel through which I wanted to help and change.

Sometimes I write about you loving you. Sometimes I write about us loving each other. Sometimes I write about loving our planet.

Once in a while, I even write about myself.

I might not have a “niche” or narrowed topic.

What I do have, though, if you’ll take it, is love.

And I hope that’s enough for you to keep on reading.

Thank you for sticking with me.

For visiting, and choosing to stay.
