As I tentatively dip my toes into the blogging world I ask myself why?
What is it that drives me to write? Certainly it's not the need for an audience. Perhaps the need for an outlet? Or the need for a record--some primal human need to be remembered or to remember for myself days and dreams past. Yes, that must be it. Lately I seem to find greater and greater truth in Jacob's words, "our lives passed away like as it were unto us a dream" (Jacob 7:26). And in this dreamlike state, I feel a need to hold on to life's treasures and its lessons.
And so it begins, the hodgepodge record of thoughts, feelings, and stories. This too, may be another one of many wandering stars. Where it leads can only be imagined and dreamed of from our vantage point at the beginning. The journey may yet bring about the unexpected.
