Essays & notes by Kyle

Hello, my name is Kyle. I decided to create this blog because I want to log all of my studies from the different areas I draw from. Many of these essays and notes will be incomplete thoughts I've had over the past few years, alongside the ones I'm currently working through.

To be a Philomath is, first, "philo," which means loving, and "math," which means learning, studying, or science. We should all seek to be philomaths in our own ways: seeing life as a realization of the ideal self, a mastery of the things around us, and, most importantly, a pursuit of God.

I dedicate this blog to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and Sts. Isidore of Seville, Albert the Great, Thomas Aquinas, Carlo Acutis, and Pier Giorgio Frassati.

Mortal men ask God for good things every day, but they never pray that they may make good use of them.
