Hello commissar or comrade, my name is Jacob. I have an affinity for music, writing, philosophy, and gaming.
I have a tendency to offer insight on random aspects of the world, universe, and life, but I can give only more or less inexperienced contributions on those subjects. However, this has never stopped me before.
I always have those moments of extreme apprehension right after I open up an unfinished piece on my computer. The words I’m about to put down are going to be mine. They’re going to be what came from me, and they have to be perfect. They won’t be, but they still have to be. That realization is what drives me to close the document, feeling safe in knowing that no mistakes were made, and turn to doing some mundane activity. The safety of knowing that I didn’t mess up the dreams in my head is a false sense of security that leaves me with an emptiness I can’t quite explain.
One of the most exhilarating feelings is conquering that apprehension and writing anyway, rather than allowing my self-doubt to take hold.
