If empathy came in pretty packaging and a price tag, would people care to get it?

I have always tried to maintain a journal with no success. Just the fact that it had to be perfect, consistent, long, and allot time to it with life's whirlwinds, it was just overwhelming and I procrastinated it. I have also seen that it happens with a lot of people. I felt like I needed something with less curation, less prompts and more dumping of my thoughts carelessly as a true picture of what thoughts ran through my head.

That's when I found the concept of a commonplace book.

According to the paper kind, a commonplace book is "a tool to record and digest information''. They have a long history, going as far as the 16th century. They can be used as a way to store things to remember, whether academic or memories. Back in the day, it was a must for education, to the point that Oxford and Cambridge taught students about them. It can come useful when you need to record information for research, but generally you kinda mix up journal entries, pictures, drawings, reminders, and topics you research

It is behind that concept that I create this blog, where I combined all my passions and memories into one place. Taking a sprinkle of the academia aesthetic and an influence of the renaissance era with the love for learning, I invite you to follow along this commonplace blog.
