Why Blog?
I’ve never been a blogger. But I am the type that is always thinking. But if to write is to reflect; to ponder; to convey; to explore whatever it is that you are thinking about, then I suppose I should be writing a hell of a lot more.
Sometimes I worry that life is just passing me by, far too quickly for me to see the details. Maybe this is a way to keep the blur in better focus. Maybe it is a way to remember, to reminisce, to engage a premeditated bout of nostalgia. Maybe it is just a convenient way to reshape my world as I see fit; omitting the bad and emphasizing the good.
There is no denying that this is a subjective paradise, where I can bask in the sunlight I help to create. But it is also the deck of a ship upon which I can look out on the horizon from the confines of a sturdy vessel and plan my next journey.
There is so much left to see, and do; people to meet; experiences to share; love to give. If I take a moment each day to reflect, and make an effort to appreciate all the little journeys that have brought me to this tiny point in a vast ocean, perhaps I can chart a better course.
This is a compass of sorts… to keep me safe, and help lead me astray in all the best ways possible. Hope I enjoy.
