What have I creat-ed today?


It is the blessing and curse of existing - that we humans are conscious of our existence.  Naturally, as thinking beings, the greatest human question is why?  Why do we exist? Why were we created?

While the more existential question of why does the human race exist is a more complicated question to answer, the natural progression of human thought can, in a way, reason why we, individually exist.  Why was I, Tori, created?

The human hope is this: we were created on purpose.  We were created because we're part of a bigger plan, we were created because we each have something unique to bring to the world.

Sitting on my couch on a January Sunday afternoon, I realized that I have not created or changed anything as of late.  If we really were created for a reason, then I'd like to try harder to find mine.

From the very beginning, this blog was created to inspire others that the -ed is out there, whatever the -ed is to you.  I'm going to spend some more time looking for my -ed this year and I hope you'll join me on the journey.

Ask yourself this: what have I created today? what have I done with my last 24 hours of existence?

Today, my answer is a lentil soup and this blog post.  It's a start.

Surpris-ed?

Is anyone still out there?  Surpris-ed to see me back here after so long?


I'm in the process of building a new platform that I hope you will like, but first order of business...I need a new name.  the -ed chronicles has served me well, but I think it's time for something a little catchier, a little more...me.

Here is where you come in.  What would you name my next blog?  Consider the content I post, the mood, the voice.  If possible, I'd like to incorporate my nickname, "Tori" into the new name.  Or, if you have another idea, let me know.

Leave any ideas in the comments below.  If I end up using your suggestion, there's a box of these in your future.
