So I've been told by some that if I could keep my mouth shut and just write, I'd be a whole lot better off. Only problem with that is that I don't really like to write! It requires much more intense concentration than my increasingly attentionaly deficit brain can muster. I don't know if it's the abuse of video games over the years or living in a text message, microwave world, but the thought of sitting even for a few moments to write my thoughts down actually is a chore.
That being said, there are quite a few things that rattle around in my head throughout the day that I think may be a benefit to have outside of my head. For some of you reading this, it will be a benefit for you to be able to see my thoughts...maybe b/c you don't have any of your own or b/c you've been trying to figure out what makes me tick (good luck there...I'm not even sure). For me, I've heard it said by various psychiatrists, psychologists, counselors, etc. that journaling one's thoughts is a cathartic experience...one that helps said person to organize his/her thinking, encapsulate meaning and even chart a future plan or prognosis (just noticed that I almost always list in three's...see this is working already).
So, having said all of this, let me now say that the purpose of my blog is three-fold. 1 - I want to challenge myself. 2 - I want to challenge my readers. 3 - I want to challenge the social structures, political mindsets and cultural norms of the day through examination, application and illustration of what I believe to be the only lens through which life can really be understood...The Holy Scriptures of God!
Ok, enough ranting for now. Two of my favorite youth just walked in to my office. They are feeding my she-wolf!
