The Pursuit Of Purpose
An Alternative Way Of Viewing Our Void For Transcendence After a contentious conversation with a friend over the role of religion in human life, I thought I might share some of my perhaps unorthodox perspective on meaning. Treating purpose as though it is a problem to be solved, or even a well-defined inquiry is perpetually…

Busy: The Relationship Between Effort & Content Creation
Sup peeps, hope you’re doing well. As an antidote to my horrible, unplanned hiatus from posting here I’ve been thinking about how to change my relationship with content creation and all of my hair-brain so called long-term goals. A number of years ago, for a variety of reasons, I was able to get a lot…

My First Book Is Out!
Hello everyone, hope you are doing fantastically well. It has been quite a good bit since I’ve posted to FourthEye, but I’ve come bearing some great news.

Escaping The Ego: On Networking & Asking For Help
Hey y’all hope you’re doing fabulously well. I apologize that it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything substantive to FourthEye, I’ve been quite busy as of late, and working on another blog.

The Lens of “Optimal”

Retirement Revisited
Despite my young age, retirement has long been a fascination of mine. Perhaps this makes sense given my interest in many topics generally associated with older demographics, but even since my elementary school days I’ve been thinking about the myth of retirement.

Smithing Better Writing
So it’s been a little bit since I posted any writing pieces to FourthEye (yes, yes I know you missed me). Jokes aside, although my goal is to publish at least one written blog post per week, I’ve been struggling with what to write about. I don’t know if I would describe my plight as…

Art/Anatomy Practice 6/14/2021
Just something that I slapped together yesterday in an attempt to practice anatomy and gesture poses a bit. No those aren’t nipples…..they are supposed to be coverings, just poorly drawn. Sorry that it’s a bit blurry, I’m apparently not the best at taking pictures on my phone lol. Hopefully my problems will be solved in…
