Introduction
Hello.
If you're reading this, then you either know me, or have been intrigued by the title of this blog.
There's no real mystery to be found in the title. If that's what you were after, you can go now.
Basically, in the past (and even nowadays) some people had trouble remembering or pronouncing my name when they first met me (Karnesh, pronounced Car-nEsh), and so, I decided to adopt myself a nickname to make things easier, and shortened my name to its first letter - K. While this works well, the only downside is that a lot of people only know me by my nickname now, and couldn't give my full name if their lives depended on it.
By now you may (or may not) be wondering why i've started a blog. I decided that it was about time that I put my thoughts down in writing. I have too many opinions, and no real outlet for them, so where else to say what I think than in a blog? As with any viewpoint, there are always those who will disagree with it, to varying degrees.
Let me make one thing clear right now - I'm not interested in people replying to my blogs either in agreement with what I say or not. If you share my point of view, that's nice. If you don't, that's nice too. One thing that I believe strongly is that a person should always keep an open mind, and respect anothers' right to speak their mind, and hold opinions different to their own. People who go round saying that only "their" (whether referring to just themselves, a specific group of people, or even an entire society) point of view is the only correct point of view, and expect others to drop their beliefs and opinions because of this, have (in my opinion) closed their minds to possibilities, and will most likely never open them again (though stranger things have happened).
If you want to post a reply here, regardless of which way you stand on my views, that's fine. The only thing I will not stand for is insulting other people in any way, shape, or form. If you want to swear that's fine. If you want to disagree that's fine too. If you want to slag off someone who'd just posted before you, that's not fine. If you want to make racist (or other types generally not accepted by civilized society) comments, that's not fine either. I shall be moderating all posts, and if anything here approaches the kind of unacceptable behaviour I have talked about, the post shall not be put up, and the person in question will be "named and shamed".
Hmm, I think that's more than enough.
