Having set this blog up weeks ago I found myself completely overwhelmed by the blank page. This feeling led to a surge of topics, insights & revelations that I want to share with the world. Or maybe just get out of my head so that my clouded mind can see things a bit more clearly. Make no mistake, the last 4 and a half years have provided me with a wealth of topics, insights, revelations and challenges to draw upon, but I found myself quite overwhelmed at the thought of starting all this. And I feel obligated to share that up till recently I found blogs quite douchey; this all changed when a friend from way back when began posting her blogs and I found myself quite able to relate to her words and even found a therapeutic value to them. Of course this got my gears a turnin' thinking, "well hell, if reading those words helped to clarify things, imagine the power of me writing words and sharing them". So here we are.
While I can not make any promises to content, nor can I promise not to offend by my revelations, I can promise to have truth to my words and to do this blog thing regularly (no matter how douchey I feel about it).
In closing for this very first post, I would like to share a quote that continues to have meaning for me every time I read it:
"Put no stock in the opinions of anyone but those closes to you. Forget about leaving a mark on the world. Ignore the great issues of your time & thereby improve your digestion. Don't dwell in the past. Don't worry about the future. Live in the moment. Trust in the purpose of your existence and let meaning come to you instead of straining to discover it" -Dean Koontz "Seize The Night"
