Beginnings

OK,

So, I’ve been working on getting this up and running all day. There are still a few things left to tweek, but I’m close. This is my second attempt at publishing a blog. Let’s hope this time around I stick with it a little longer. I’ve been wanting a place to publish thoughts, comments, etc. for a while and I’ve actually been somewhat keeping a travel journal, which I’ve been enjoying. Publishing it on the web seems like a logical step. So I figure I’ll start with some goals for the site and see where it goes from there.

I intend:

1. To gain honest insight into facets of my life through the act of writing it all down

2. To share with others and build community

3. To use the site as a motivational tool to inspire me to pursue those things which I’m interested in

4. To overcome my perfectionist tendencies while writing. i.e. become more comfortable with having words and thoughts in a public arena that are less than brilliant/ not a masterpiece of literature

5. To use this blog as a tool to keep in better touch with family and friends.

I’m sure there are many other reasons I could go into, but in the spirit of keeping entries managable and undaunting, I’ll leave it at that.
