As a toddler is to an Olympic runner, so am I to a professional philosopher/poet.

I need to take small steps and write stumbling sets of ideas, concepts and perspectives.  I need to read and digest small bites of truth at a time and take the energy that gives me, and then search for more truths.

I need to grow and to learn.
I need to walk before I can run.
