I love making stuff. I love creating my own solutions to things.

Often I will prefer the homemade version to the a purchased version because there is connection and relationship inherent in the making of something. Not to mention more durability and less weird chemicals in most cases. Making has expanded to most areas of my life over time. Food, energy drinks, medicine, gifts, greeting cards, weight sets, clothing, power systems, water filtration, waste processing, operating systems, living structures... all of it. I love making stuff. Especially using things I already have, or things people no longer want.

But what im thinking about today, is that i am the only person who ever enjoys many of the things i make. part of this is because many people are still programmed to think that 'just buying it' is better, but the other part is that many of the things i make cant really be packaged and sold in a traditional sense. they need to be made by others. its the process and the thinking that can be shared.

i suppose the obvious solution would be to share more. but im private about some things, and i have no intention of overcomplicating my life with trying to capture everything, spending too much on unneccesary camera gear, and talking in a retarded youtuber voice.

just thinking outloud.
thoughts?
