Blogger Baby

So, I have never written a blog before.  I didn't see the need thanks to being an avid journaler, facebook, myspace, email and everyday conversations.  However, after thinking about it, I've decided that blogging could be a very beneficial thing.  I write poetry and journal alot as I mentioned before, but I've never written much that was intended for anyone's eyes but my own.  What a blog would force me to do is write carefully and coherently, to write in a logical vein of thought so that others can understand exactly what it is that I'm trying to say.  It can also be beneficial to blog at this time in my life when I have so many ideas and theories and questions floating around in my head...thus the pithy title of "Thought Air Balloons" because all the thoughts in my head are like hot air balloons climbing towards the sky.  I would rather those hot air balloons fly in a manageable pattern with purpose as they rise at a steady pace towards a meaningful end.  I realize that to do that I will need to pull wisdom and experience from the pool that my audience makes up.  Your wisdom, your insights into my scattered thoughts can not only direct my hot air balloons but aid me in my journey for truth, reality and life lived well.  

My aspirations for this blog is that it will be interesting, entertaining, meaningful and a source of deep thought.  Any and every comment will be much appreciated and taken to heart...and mind...as I think the realities of life, truth and God.
