Wow this was utterly simply put but amazingly stated!
Your writing indeed inspires me.
May 17, 2012 at 12:05 am
I agree, thank you. Clever, well-considered, well-written, downright pleasure!
May 8, 2012 at 9:34 pm
Sincerely simplistic and very inspirational way of viewing life.
Your writing surely inspires…..
May 9, 2012 at 8:37 am
Thanks for your “like”.I am pleased to read your blog. Fresh, clear and smart. Congratulations!
May 9, 2012 at 3:46 pm
Excellent writing. Love the style, the wit. Brilliant!
May 9, 2012 at 4:30 pm
Thanks for the likes. As a result I was able to appreciate what you have here. It resonates. Thanks.
May 9, 2012 at 4:41 pm
I am absolutely chuffed that you visited (and apparently liked) at least one post on my blog. I love your clever style and insights and I will be back (that’s a promise, not a threat)! 🙂
May 9, 2012 at 4:54 pm
Haha thanks very much, I enjoyed reading your blog too. I am not a religious person but I understand the power faith can have on people. I respect that you stand by what you believe and that you take comfort in it.
May 9, 2012 at 8:22 pm
“Do as much as I can until I’m asked to leave” — you bet, I like your approach. Thanks for discovering my blog and the “Scalenes!” post. Like you, I’m trying to use my health and wits to the fullest while I can (thus the Iceland project). A bonus: I’m chuffed to find another of your fans uses the word ‘chuffed’!
May 11, 2012 at 11:11 am
Thanks for liking one of my posts. I really wonder where that came from, haha. I’m new to blogging and I hope I learn from you. I sure be visiting a lot. :p

Three sentences, and I was hooked! Great intro 🙂

Hello! Three sentences and I was hooked! Great intro 🙂
Thanks for dropping by my blog too
May 11, 2012 at 4:53 pm
What would you do if you were never asked to leave? Crazy thought right? lol. Thanks for dropping by my blog.
May 14, 2012 at 9:52 am
Hi there! I’m the opposite of agnostic, but I like your writing style. Thanks for liking my recent post!

May 14, 2012 at 5:07 pm
Thanks so much for following. I look forward to reading what you have to say as well. =)
May 14, 2012 at 6:37 pm
Awesome. But, if I may ask, who are these six?
May 14, 2012 at 10:30 pm
My mother, father, both grandmothers, my only grandfather and my great grandmother.
May 15, 2012 at 5:10 am
Makes sense. 😉 I like what you wrote. I sometimes wish we didn’t have this very poor/ fragmented picture of our family history..and I mean our real family history going back …way back. Because if we are alive, we all have a great history.
Sometimes I want to take one of those gene tests..but I always wonder if they are too good to be true; I mean anyone can take a map and be like….oh yes u came from here and here..your ancestors lived here..that’s how they traveled…blah blah. How would u know if they were telling the truth? lol
May 14, 2012 at 7:55 pm
Very good writing. You have me hooked enough to follow.
May 14, 2012 at 8:14 pm
I very much like the way you write (and think/have an overview of “things” related to life.) Thank you for liking one of my posts and for “following” me. Perhaps, there would be more posts by me you may end up liking. In any case: continued success in your written work!
May 14, 2012 at 11:01 pm
It seems that you are heading in the correct direction in your conscious or unconscious search for the Reality.
My best wishes for a successful journey 🙂
May 15, 2012 at 12:11 am
I do believe you have a very entertaining mind. I like the way you think
May 15, 2012 at 12:41 am
Love your blog! Like your syntax, I’m glad you chose to express yourself and your views and share them with the rest of the world wide and webby.
May 15, 2012 at 1:23 am
I really enjoyed this, and I have long thought how odd it is that I come from an unbroken prehistoric line, yet so few knew I existed before death, and one day I too will just be an ancestor in the family tree, perhaps even unknown.
May 15, 2012 at 12:48 pm
Thanks for passing by my blog. You have an interesting way of writing!
May 15, 2012 at 1:47 pm
Love your intro, Tearmatt. 😉

Thanks very much for the like that means a lot and I hope I can interest people half as much as you appear to! 🙂
Thanks again.

Many thanks for liking my recent post. I enjoyed visiting your site as well. I love that last line, “That’s why I intend to do as much as I can here, until I am asked to leave.” What an interesting place the world would be if we all strove to do the same.

August 27, 2012 at 9:20 pm
I enjoyed reading your article ‘me’, not 100% sure I got it all? Your image reminds me of ‘little red riding hood’. What big eyes you have, what big teeth you have…. (it was the first thing that poped into my mind when I saw your image) Thank you for reading my blog and becoming a follower!

September 21, 2012 at 1:49 am
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for following my blog. It means the world to me that you care.
September 21, 2012 at 7:53 am
(1) is ‘Tearmatt’ a pun of some kind on ‘Tiamat’ the Babylonian goddess of the sea and primordial chaos (see also Genesis 1:2)?
(2) the image of a slinky going down an up escalator is intriguing. I think it would eventually reach the bottom;
(3) your gravatar profile page does not have a link to your blog, which meant I had to guess that your blog was via WordPress and reconstruct the URL – this is easy to fix;
(4) salutations!
September 23, 2012 at 4:16 pm
Thanks for liking my post about city blocks, and following my blog! What would be on your ideal block?

Some of this is rather more political than I like to get–being, as I am, a writer of sonnets. I realize that some of what I write might be considered political, however, perhaps not so overtly, and… well… with me, one has to dig for it. Still, here I find a young man with some very interesting, and rather complicated thoughts; one who seems to be wrestling with a universality or two.
I’ve never been able to pursue the writing of a blog quite of this style, however now that I find I have decided to write about a subject about which I feel passionate, all that has changed.
Anyway, best of luck and keep writing–and thinking.
September 27, 2012 at 2:51 am
You know how to spin a sentence, my friend. Wonderful webs of stories. Writing that sings out loud. I’m a follower!
October 4, 2012 at 10:30 am

Nice opener. As a Sci-fi fan you’ve gotten my attention.
I am a merely a humble poet…
December 10, 2012 at 6:28 pm
Exactly my motto. But then “while I am here” was not enough and like you I pondered what more could there be? In the midst of my sleep my mind found the solution and chose another place to explore. Place was not enough and so next another time. Time was not enough and so next another dimension. Dimension was not enough and so next another probability. But what use is fascinating experience when in the end we die and it is as if we have never been? So like you I write and attempt to cheat death by sharing my soul’s journey’s with the immortal Earth and its many tiny memory cells, who like me replicate over and over forever……
Your thoughts are well written, appreciated and inspiring. thank you, Janr Ssor
December 11, 2012 at 1:41 am
