Waste Of A Good 27 Days

You know it is a silly thing when we get busy. Things that we love, activities that we have a passion for all get tossed to the back burner with the coils black and cold. This blog has unfortunately been victim of that dark cold corner. When I started writing, I was excited about sharing all of my thoughts and stories with all my friends and any random person who just happened to stumble upon it. Well it turns out that after the excitement faded, so did my writing. I became to "busy" to write and share things. The last couple days I have really been struggling with this situation. I want so badly to share my life with people but at the same time, whether it be work or school, I toss this and many other things back. To me this has been a waste of a good thing, I get to work on improving my writing skills and I get to post all my thoughts, prayers, hopes, and dreams out there for people to read. I have failed at doing so. On the positive side, I can see my failure and I can see an opportunity to grow in all of this. If I am going to start something, I better be able to give it 100%. To me this is practice for something bigger and better. God teaches us something in every situation we face we do, and even though this may not be a big deal, I can still take a nugget of truth from it and glorify the God that gave it to me. In life I am gonna stumble and make mistakes, it's what I will do with those mistakes that really matter.

Car Bombs And A Playlist

I know I haven't really posted anything this past week. I would have but I was out of town. While I was gone, I received a couple of messages telling me to post some new stuff. That would have been a fantastic idea, and I would have, but I could not get your messages, let alone get on a computer. So back off before I put a car-bomb under your little cars like my ancestors would have done! Sweet, well... On to more important things now.
