Well, this is it. Yes, I started a blog. I know. I'm late to the game... and actually, wondered whether I even have time for this. In fact, in a world filled with a million talking heads offering their opinions, and a society that values self-promotion and polorizing people, I wasn't sure that adding one more blog to the blogosphere would benefit anyone.
In fact, in the past year I've become much more aware of my insignificance in the whole scheme of things. Not in a depressing sort of way... just a "reality" sort of way. So, why blog? First, I hope to use this as an outlet for my thoughts and observations. Second, I want to be faithful to contribute to the beautiful tapestry made up of billions in our world by engaging in online conversation. I hope that as insignificant people interacting in some, small insignificant way, we can actually make significant impacts in each others' lives by "hearing," , understanding, and challenging one another. Third, I hope to meaningfully engage people on a spiritual level. I think stewardship is more than a money and time thing, and actually includes our heart, soul, mind, and strength (sounds familiar)!
I'm no genius, I just hope to make a difference... and pray that those who read this blog will likewise make a difference in my own life. I'm not a half-hearted person and honestly don't know how to do something just partially. I've seen those blogs that contain such infrequent posts I wonder what the point is. I really hope this doesn't fade into idea-oblivion. We'll see.
Word . Looking forward to reading!
