Purpose: The purpose of this site is to express myself to the world and share whatever is in my mind. I don’t expect people to read everything I write, as I write because it soothes me and gives me peace of mind. There are going to be times when you, as the reader, may agree or disagree with my way of thinking and that is fine. Remember, everyone is different and we all have a different perception of life in general. There will also be times when I may seem immature or into “childish” things, this being because I like to keep touch with the child within. Childhood is a wonderful thing. Most of the time, I will seem like a serious science junky and mature college student. I like to think I am a sum of all the people I have met. I am a Libra after all, with a balanced personality. I see this site evolving over time into something of a more serious tone. Yes, I said “evolved”, I believe in evolution.
Why Serendipity? Many of the greatest discoveries made by scientists from all over the world have been while looking for something else entirely. These scientists stumbled upon great and fortunate findings by sheer luck. Nonetheless, most of the time, it is still hard work that opens the window to serendipity. Great scientific discoveries tend to be awarded the Nobel Prize, which is any scientist’s wet dream.
