Why?

I image most will ask, why would I have a webpage named Neanderthal Corner? Well, I’ve always felt as though I’m on the fringe with an unintentional air of unapproachability. At times, I admittedly, can be hard to follow and a tad blunt. When I was younger, a “Gray” was talking to my partner and referred to me as a Neanderthal. I actually identified with this label which was intended to defame my character and incorporated it into my self-identity. I strive to be positive and work to implement simple, practical solutions into my daily life. I’m not big on image and would rather fail trying than believe that something can’t be done. I plan to use this platform to share projects and thoughts without an agenda. My posts will be simple text with photos which I hope you find useful.
