The Prodigal Blog

Hello again daring readers. I know this could very well be an idealistic goal, but I’m going to be aiming to put up a new post three times a week. Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday, will be the target dates that I’ll be trying to get some writing out. Some random things first. No. If there is a blog revival , then I am not aware of it. Such trends are below (absolutely apart) of me. If not for trends, then why am I blogging again? It’s never been so much about blogging as it has been writing. I am not quite so intent on desiring to communicate to the world what I ate for breakfast today, or garnering an audience of people who are concerned with such things (though I probably will blog, at some point, about what I ate for breakfast ). It is primarily an exercise in mental fitness. Spring has sprung, and with such glad tidings as that, it seems proper to take out the pen (keyboard) and begin some critical, self-reflective writing. That’s pretty much it. I do appreciate the few people that ...

I'll be experimenting with implementing some jQuery code into the template so I can do cool things with my blog text. Also - I'm looking to pretty up the page and if anyone can help me with some photoshopping pointers that might be appropriate I'd be quite grateful!

Something that bothers me about myself is my inability to do something that is very good for me. Case in point this evening would be going through my email inbox and actually responding to people who sent me emails. Sounds simple enough right? Well. Yeah. I have no defense for that. Perhaps there is something...stress inducing that comes with instant communication that is intangible to me. Whatever it is, I continue to fight it, as one might fight windmills. Something else that resulted from my forcing myself from a comfortable mental rut was the need to type up a new copy of my testimony for an application I was working on. As some might send off a ship with a fine glass of champagne I shall send off the ship of this Blog with my 675 word testimony. May these words be encouraging, challenging, and shed a bit more light on my life. Continue... I became a Christian when I was in 8 th grade. My mother and father had just been divorced from each other, for the third time, two years pr...
