Triangulate

There have been a handful of times in the last few months when I was able to pinpoint some past event in my life based on when I wrote something completely unrelated down in a blog post or notebook. Blogging, or just writing in general, is really valuable in lots of ways, but I’ve never really thought of it as creating markers in time you can use to triangulate other events.

Write something down, post it at a URL, and you’ve got a reference point you can access whenever you need to from any device connected to the internet. That’s pretty cool.

So, happy new year! Here is my first marker in 2023.
