feel free to skip this part. It might get better. Not sure though.

This blog is named "Quest for Clarity". I am deep in some mental and spiritual fog at this point in my life.

"In the middle of our life's way

I found myself in a wood so dark
That I couldn't tell where the straight path lay."
Dante's Inferno
Canto 1 verses 1-3

It seems that no one finds themselves in Dante's position these days.(Except me)
Everyone seems very sure of what is TRUE (Except me)
???(Of course there is a lot more information now.
People may just be smarter?)???

People loudly proclaim their own views.
 I listen to  many different points of view.
I readily see other peoples points.
 I might not adopt them myself, but I see them.
Thus,  I often feel like a "chameleon on a plaid blanket".
This has become so uncomfortable for me.
 I stay out of society as much as I possibly can.
I don't think I can get the hang of this "being human".
 Everyone else seems so confident .
( I have a lot to learn.  Always at "Beginner mind".)
I guess that is good. Does anyone else feel this quandary?

Is life confusing for other people?

(Plus I am having a hard enough time figuring out the how-to's of this blogging business.

Clarity of thought will have to come later, once I get the hang of this.)

I don't actually believe anybody is reading this, so it shouldn't matter if I seem stupid.
Or boring.
Right?

OK I understand now that this blogger only works properly for me in mozilla. That makes this thing a whole lot easier. (Whew!)

Whenever I am learning something new it throws my whole system off for a while. (This has happened to me many times before, so I know). After a while I will be blithely blogging. Easily editing. Delightedly downloading. Or whatever.

In case anybody should read this,  I am goofing around here,
I am playing with blogger features. I learn best by playing. What I do
while learning probably looks dorky.  Who cares?
I remember- this is what it is like to be a kid. I can remember just to relax and have fun with it all.
