Here we go.

To be quite honest, Dear Reader, blogging is not something I have wanted to do. I have found myself to be a bit worn out by everyone talking about Twitter, Facebook, and the once legendary MySpace. The cyber-world in which we live can be annoying. However, blogging seems to be an appropriate place for me to share my thoughts, which, believe it or not, I get once in a while. Allow me, if you will, Dear Reader, to explain what this blog is and what it is not.
This blog is NOT a place for me to show people how hip I am. No, this is not an attempt to show friends and family how smart and talented I am. As blogging is becoming more and more of a fad, being a part of a fad has never been something I have been about. The same is true for my decision to start blogging.
This blog IS a place partly for me and partly for you. I feel the need to blog because I sometimes get the itch to write and I've no place to spill it. I feel the need to blog for you, Reader, because I appreciate openness. I remember being in my middle school science class and my teacher said, "There's no such thing as a dumb question because, chances are, there's someone else with the same question." It's from that place in my heart that I am writing this blog... when we're all open with our questions and our struggles and our thoughts, we can all learn from each other. It is beautiful... it's an expression of worship.
So, to sum it up, my motive behind this blog is for myself and for you. I hope you enjoy, Dear Reader. If not, keep in mind that it's for me, too. So, even if no one reads what I have to say, it does me well to have a place to articulate my thoughts. We will all soon find out exactly how consistent I am with this thing. Thanks for reading.
