Welcome, welcome!

Looks like you’ve stumbled onto my bucket list-style project I’m calling “100 Things To Do Before The Sun Explodes.”

It’s nice to have you!

To be real, the star at the centre of our solar system exploding isn’t exactly something that needs to be on the forefront of anybody’s mind for at least a couple billion years, but you can consider this a peculiar excuse to introspect and consider some of the philosophy of our own, individual bucket lists.

Every Monday, I’ll touch on one item I’m adding to my list, exploring the idea in depth, what it means to me, and why I think it’s worth your time. The exact format of my thoughts will change from week to week, but the general premise will remain the same.

Each post will also contain three journaling prompts related to the topic discussed that week.

If that sounds up your alley, feel free to Subscribe to the page at any level to engage and be a part of the community.

Nothing on this Substack will every be hidden behind a paywall, so all contributions are simply a way of showing support for this project and my work!

If there is something you want to see discussed, reach out! I’m interested in what you all want to hear!

More than anything, I want to hear from you. If the concepts we discuss resonate with you in any way, I encourage you to write me back a reply or comment on each post!

And if you want to check out my other, slightly more casual newsletter where I touch on my weekly goings-on and provide some bite-sized philosophy, you can find that here.

About me…

I should introduce myself as well.

I consider myself a wannabe philosopher turned writer, hailing from Ontario, Canada.

I'm currently putting the finishing touches on my debut poetry collection, Absurd Foothills, which you can find out more about on my website, aidanjonesofficial.com!

My hope is to create a small platform to share my work, and to start meaningful conversations with others. Also, it goes without saying that this is a safe space. Everyone deserves respect, and creating a meaningful community is a joint effort.

If you’d like to see more of my work, check out this link here.

Thank you for taking a peek, and expect to hear from me soon!

See you at 100!
