RETURN TO THE RYE

RETURN TO THE RYE IS MIXTURE OF WELL PLANNED AND RESEARCHED WRITING MIXED WITH NO THOUGHT JUST VIBES WEEKLY PIECES THAT SHOWCASE TASTE, CONSUMPTION AND OPINION.

 

SUMMARY: A collection of brainwaves. A mixture of my taste, thought pieces, critiques, and more. A rediscovery of childlike wonder and creative expression.

 

The name return to the rye is a play on the J.D. Salinger book Catcher in the Rye. It is generally known for many things, but to me personally the title itself and the way the book ties it into the story is inspiring. If you haven’t read the book, you should—it is quite short. The section that references the rye is has several interpretations and is a bit too meta to easily explain in this introduction, but essentially the main character Holden wants to protect the innocence of children and be the catcher in the rye to save them. This page is my attempt to return to the rye, to refind my childlike wonder, to express myself creatively, to inspire others to have strong taste. I have thought about how I wanted to do this for years, and I am done thinking because that conscious, overthinking, negative self-talker isn’t getting me anywhere.
