A Brave New World

This blogging phenomenon is a new thing to me. I've recently discovered several very engaging blogs that have helped me discover far more than I ever knew before about some people in my life. I'm not so good at small talk, so this is all very intriguing to me. I never really thought about doing my own, until one day I was commenting profusely on a friend's blog, and was sure I heard a voice coming back saying, "Hey, get your own blog!" The actual response was quite gracious, but still... The other thing is that my father-in-law has always told me I should write a book. Quite frankly, I'm sort of the sum total of all the books I've read, so who needs mine? But just maybe if I share the the turns my journey is taking, someone will be encouraged along the way. I can only hope so. So here's to the world of blogging to get us beneath the surface. And thanks to anyone kind enough to read and help me process!
