It
seems that every new blog must have some sort of explanation or mission statement
for its commencement. I am not a conformist by any means, but I must admit, it
is hard to resist giving a little preview of what I have in mind here. So, without
further ado, I shall conform.
They say “everyone has at least one book
in them,” and some even go so far as to say a “good” one. I have noticed that they never go on to say that everyone
gets that one book published, receives a big ole check, and eats steak instead
of frozen pizza for the rest of his days. Well, we won’t try to figure out who they are at the moment, but I do enjoy
writing different kinds of things, and I feel like there is certainly enough
there to fill a volume or two.
I
am a Christian man, and you can usually pick up on that, whether I write something
serious, or humorous. I have also always loved to teach, to help others
understand, and if possible, be there for that moment when someone finally
“gets it.” Writing is one way to do that. I have to small boys that I look
forward to teaching more complicated things one day (if they will listen). But
the truth is that as fast as time flies, tomorrow is not guaranteed. So, I
figured that the best thing to do was to bring all these things together.
Whenever I have something serious to say, or something humorous and uplifting,
or a word of instruction that could be of help to someone – maybe even for my
boys one day – this is where it will be.
This
is free of charge. I do consider myself a servant of others, and try to
practice it consistently, though I confess it is hard to do. Therefore, I offer
this as a public service, and from this point forward, each post that follows
will be a public servant’s announcement from yours truly.
