Hi

I’m Eric, a 24 year old software engineer living in Chicago.

Similar to any other person, I have always been drawn to those who have found substantial meaning in their lives. Often portrayed as the wildly successful- professional athletes, artists, tech entrepreneurs, and celebrities- these people have the most fascinating insights and stories of their ascension. But, while it is inspiring learning their lives from books, news articles, and interviews, I always wondered what the stories were like without the benefit of hindsight.

How did all the uncertainty feel? What kept faith? What were the internal struggles and insecurities? What were the present reactions?

These are all questions in which answers would immediately apply to me. I don’t have the benefit of hindsight nor the certainty of a self-defined meaningful life. I don’t know what I want to do or how to achieve it. Everything is very much uncertain.

And so, as I figure out my life, I record my present reflections and curiosities. And I hope you’ll share yours too.

This is Nobody Yet.
