all i may be, or may have been before..

A long awaited beginning, a much carefully thought about one too..
a journey unto myself..

People generally start with an introduction, but here, at this moment, all i can think of is Byron's beautiful and evocative verse..

"There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
  there is a rapture on the lonely shore,
  there is society, where none intrudes,
  by the deep sea, and music in its roar:
  I love not man the less, but Nature more,
  from these our interviews, in which I steal
  from all I may be, or have been before,
  to mingle with the Universe, and feel
  what I can ne'er express, yet cannot all conceal."

                    -Lord George Gordon Byron
