I am a freelance writer, and for the right amount of compensation, pretty much anything else you want. In my spare time I think too much, so I decided to start this blog. I will use it, among other reasons, to demonstrate my various writing styles. I will also chronicle my thoughts or lack there of.

In addition, I co-host other talented bloggers, freelance writers of interest and people offering more of their two cents than common sense. If you would like to have something you’ve written, a friend has written, or basically anything you haven’t stolen featured on this site, feel free to submit a request to wisdomismisery@gmail.com.

W.I.M. is a byproduct of Generation Y and proud of it. Therefore, if you’re lucky, you will see me spend hours each day pondering some of life’s more insightfully perplexing questions like: “Why doesn’t anyone ever ask which came first, the dinosaur or the egg?” Furthermore, depending on my mood, you may also bare witness to the melodramatic musings of a man in the cold, unshakable death grips of a quarter-life crisis. At the end of the day, I’m just trying to make sense of  the senselessness.

Why Wisdom Is Misery?

Why not? If you’re biblically inclined, Ecclesiastes 1:12-18 provides an adequate explanation: “Solomon tried all things, and found them vanity. He found his searches after knowledge weariness, not only to the flesh, but to the mind. The more he saw of the works done under the sun, the more he saw their vanity; and the sight often vexed his spirit. He could neither gain that satisfaction to himself, nor do that good to others, which he expected. Even the pursuit of knowledge and wisdom discovered man’s wickedness and misery; so that the more he knew, the more he saw cause to lament and mourn.”

If not, then simply put: If ignorance is bliss, then wisdom is misery.
