A direction

My original intent for this blog was expressing factual behavior using poetry, I suffered writer's block and attempted to use it for short book reviews, but my recent chain of intellectual interests have veered off the scientific path. I am seeking to answer the age old question of "how should one live." I find myself being overcome by palpable waves of confusion in regards to what direction I want to go with my time. I enjoy time spent in the out of doors, but I do not so much enjoy exploring nature in a purely scientific manner or in a destructive manner. I feel most alive in matters of ethics. I do not like to watch children picking up toads with little concern for the treatment of it. I do not see myself finding joy in laboratory experiments on animals regardless of what discovery is to be discovered because of it. I am most content observing animal and plant-life in nature and then drawing or writing about what I have observed. I also enjoy exploring other writer's and artist's observations and creations. This is a working construction in hopes of finding answers to what it is I would be happy and ful-filled spending my time working on.
