Opening statements

I thought that it could be a good idea to slightly unveil what lies behind the curtain of me. My intention in these blogwritings is not to piss-off anyone. I take the liberty to speak up my mind and surely not all my thoughts will please everyone.

However,the sole reason for all the (hopefully happening) future writings are to provide myself a way to further express myself. Essentially, then, as much as I hope and encourage feedback, my writings are also in someway me talking to myself (whether that makes any sense at all). I try to share my ideas,thoughts and emotions on various issues that for one reason or another are of importance to me. This can take the form of simply my life experiences, something I've seen happening around me or something more grandeur.

And oh, one important notice. Some writings will probably be released in Finnish. This is largely due to my Finnish origins. Nonetheless, I will attempt to provide as much writings in English as possible. In addition I hope that you will all have patience and understanding with my English skills. As my mother tongue truly is Finnish, problems and misspellings in regard to my use of English will most likely occur. So bear with me..:)

As I said, feedback of all sorts is warmly welcomed and cherished.Even if you'd find yourself disagreeing with me, well-structured and argumented criticisms are also welcome. This journey of mine is one of life-time learning and it would be arrogant of me to believe that I can always separate the right from wrong, good from bad, freshness from the stench of rotten.

Here's a few facts about me and these writings:

1) These are merely my ideas and thoughts; they are not meant to be taken as truths (of course I'd find it pleasing if somebody would actually agree with me but that's slightly beside the point here..)

2) I have my academic background in political science but in no way is my information base neither solid nor full.

3) I encourage participation, feedback and good dialogue. Doing so may not save the world but hopefully someone, in addition to myself, will find strength, comfort and understanding for their own lives (or alternatively, just be entertained).

Ok, so this was just the sound of the engine starting. Soon will follow the official episode number one..remember to love and care for those around you:)

Take care
