Break
Hello, everyone!
You may have noticed a bit of a decline in the amount of new posts around here. Sorry about that!
I just wanted to “officially” say that this blog is going to take a little break. I hope that you’re a subscriber so that you can pick right up with me when I resume posting here.
Nothing’s the matter, it’s just that this is a peak “busy-ness” time for me and something had to give.
So that’s why you haven’t seen anything much here lately.
In the meantime, you can keep watching for new pingbacks on the St. Francis Project. Folks are writing some great stuff about that.
I hope things are going well for all of you and I look forward to resuming blogging here soon.
About This Blog
In Thornton Wilder’s play Our Town, the central character dies an early death. Emily is given the chance to revisit a day of her life and is advised by those in the afterlife to pick an ordinary day, warning her that she might be overcome otherwise. Still, Emily is overwhelmed with emotion as she recognizes how wonderful the everyday details of her existence were. Her daily routine takes on new significance now that it is gone. Through her tears, she asks:
Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it– every, every minute?
With this blog, I am trying to fully “realize” my life by documenting the things that I love. I want to appreciate and examine my past and present, as well as plan actively for the future.
I hope to accentuate the positive in my life and in the world around me, with the hope that by focusing on the positive, I will draw more positive elements into my life. Or, at least, realize all of the blessings that I do have.
Bob, the author of this blog, is a 33 year old husband, father, son, teacher, Christian, and liberal.
