This is an effort to shift from being an internet lurker toward finding a voice and community online with the hope it brings about good in some way. For years I have been on the sidelines consuming content while seemingly likeminded people share online and now I feel a need to contribute rather than simply consume. Maybe you’re a lurker and need some inspiration to start sharing too. Or, maybe you’re someone who enjoys your mind’s musings like I do and want to follow along as I put thoughts into the online world.
You’ll find me a kindred spirit if you are one of those curious folks who recognize an unexamined life is not worth living and you spend time pondering how we can flourish in a sustainable way. Our relationships with self, each other, nature, work, education, money, and technology are what I imagine you’ll read about the most here - I’m putting that in writing now in part to provide prompts for myself to get started and also as a waypoint to look back on and see how this transition from lurker to sharer evolves over time.
Starting something like this has been on my mind for a long time so today I’m going to stop trying to figure out where sharing online will take me and actually find out.
ps. everything is better when we do it together - if you made it this far, let’s connect here or on twitter @e_lurke and see where it takes us.
