I’ve a feeling I’ll be writing more frequently on this blog in the coming year. This has been, as I have observed before, a transitional year. From reading to writing. Reading has been my primary focus these past three years. My three years before the mast. Having first come on to the Internet around the beginning of 2009, I had a lot to catch up on. That is what the “reader” blogs have been about: gathering information. I find myself, at the end of 2011 less interested in republishing the articles I find. That is as it should be. A link and an excerpt will now suffice. 2012 will be a new orientation for the Ironymous project. I’ll keep cataloging stuff at Ironymous1, but, as per the original plan, I will be pontificating here. “Blogging” they call it. Call it mental calisthenics. I don’t want to “lose my verbosity”.
You know, what you have written down, the records of events, as well as articles read and reblogged can’t really tell you a whole lot about overall trends over a given period of time ; particularly long spans. Years. Decades. In the end it is the things you remember, unaided by any written document, that determines the priorities, that is, what is deemed important -issues, events- over a given span of time. The coherent summation of a period of time, as I shall attempt here, relies upon one’s ability to see patterns in the remembered events. The data gathered or recorded can only supplement this recognition of patterns, by either confirming or negating perceived trends.
Reflection, like blogs, tend to begin at the end. In looking back, I, for one, tend to see the most recent developments first. So why fight it? Chronology only matters when you’re chronicling. I have to deal with my most recent conceptualizing development. To whit, I have become a true believer, as far as UFOs are concerned. Though I have been examining this issue about a year now, I have to this point been agnostic. Not skeptical. Heaven forbid! Skeptics, or rather neoskeptics, as I call them, deny that UFOs are connected with extraterrestrial visitation. An agnostic makes no such presumption. But after a year of examining the phenomenon, I have come to the conclusion that not only is the UFO phenomenon real, it also represents extraterrestrial presence on the earth. The following video series went a long way in leading me to this conclusion. I had never known there was so much evidence available. As the documentary asserts, it’s no longer a matter of whether UFOs and alien interaction are real. The question is when will our government tell us it’s okay to believe it?
