The Blog of Questioning
http://udontsan.wordpress.com/
While this blog fails to have a central focus–as it concerns a myriad of subject matters (such as gender, race, literature, and God)–its central attitude seems to be that of questioning.
This is a blog that questions, a blog that seeks to find answers, insights, deeper understandings–for many things. Not everything, because that’ll be quite impossible, but whatever the humble writer of this cyber corner stumbles across in life.
Don’t take the world for granted. More than often, it is a facade too comfortable with itself. That is, until we start looking closely.
This, is the Blog of Questioning.
