Hi, I'm Rob. Welcome to my digital garden.
This blog is a reflection of who I am. I want to leave behind an imprint of my personality, thoughts and interests as a guide for future generations to follow. Cultivating a digital garden is a beautiful representation of people possessing multitudes where each section is either in a state of growth or stagnation.
For (personal) growth to happen you must experiment, reflect, and persist until you learn something new about yourself. You should try on as many different "hats" as you can to discover what fits you best. Be bold and curious in your exploration of self.
I'm an introvert, whose mind is ill-suited for a digital landscape where everyone and their grandmother is sharing their opinion with you, as if we didn't evolve to listen only to a handful of voices every day. I once thought I needed the spotlight, but I've come to realise that this desire is simply a reflection of low self-worth.
My only ambition is to be a kind and compassionate soul in a world that is cruel and unforgiving. The world is a reflection of our values, if you wish to change it, reflect on what you believe in. I want to exert influence through my words and let them echo quietly across time and space.
I have no delusion that my words will change the world in my lifetime, but it just might spark a mind decades from now that ignites a revolution. You don't need to be loud or in the spotlight to have impact. You just need presence and a willingness to create something that will outlast you.
Be well.
