I wasn’t sure I would ever do this. Blogging. Not that I don’t love reading other peoples’ thoughts and musings, I do. I am a blog following child of our age. I am one that feels that even though facebook and twitter aren’t the same as sitting down over a glass of wine or the occasion cigar with on old friend – they are better than what I was doing.
I am not a good maintainer of relationships when people move away. I don’t mean to be bad at it, and I am improving – but it can be tough. So having a way to take a few moments or minutes to read what people I care about and/or respect are doing and/or thinking is very enjoyable and/or meaningful to me.
But starting a blog myself? That is another issue altogether.
Jumping into the fray and figuring out how that time will materialize in the midst of a life that I feel is almost always thriving in a few of the most important areas of my life and almost never thriving in them all? Not easy.
But this is my first step. Bear with me. Hopefully some of it will be funny, a way of allowing the things I notice about life to get out there a bit. Hopefully other parts will be touching and draw you into a moment with our Savior. And maybe other parts will be profound, calling something out of you that perhaps you already knew – or didn’t.
Ultimately, I want it to be like me. A bit erratic at times, but overall heading in the right direction. So.. without further ado…
Let’s do this.
