My first blog…

Friday, July 21st, 2006

I’ve always thought these things are so self-absorbed…blogs. I am all for the inner voice and for journaling, but this- this is different. This is my inner voice ONLINE. This is my inner voice available to the MASSES. And really, who cares to know what I think anyway?

But what am I supposed to do with all of those split moment ephiphanies while en route to work? Or while conditioning in the shower? Or in line at the Jewel? Do those thoughts have to drift away into my subconscious, never voiced, never founded? Maybe it’s a string of conversation I overheard. Maybe it’s the smile of a child in her stroller. Or maybe it’s as simple as the way the sunlight filters down the buildings at sunset along the lake.

They are small and perhaps not worth mentioning. They are forgettable. But, to me, life is made up of those miniscule moments, connections, and near misses. I guess it’s time to stop and look around a while.
