Seems 10 years ago a friend challenged me, to start a blog and be a
writer you see. I had drawn and photographed some events of my time, but what
did I have for a blog on my mind?
Some have blogs for political soapbox rants, and some have family and
friends photos to share while scratching their pants, some post their recipes
for something good to eat, and others are looking for love and someone sweet to
meet, but I didn’t think I had very much to say, but I found a format and did
it anyway.
What will I write, I started to think, and oh this is silly stuff so have
another drink. Who would read any of this stuff I thought, but the price was
right for the reading you bought.
“A journal” I surmised would be the right view, to write down what I was
thinking to present to you. Little did I know how the fates would take place,
for the mind to wander and writings become in your face.
While we are bombarded by thoughts and ideas and the words fill our
brains, these words are “Just Another Life” a journal to keep me sane.
The subjects even surprise me from time-to-time, without any reason or
any rhyme. Some are personal reflections and some are just goobly goo. Faith
and God and death and war, dreams and love and things that bore, a resemblance
to any conscious plan, became a focused opinion from one man.
Don’t write for approval or reviews, but comments have been thoughtful
land some amuse, to continue the ramblings of what would be a conversation, if
I had a face-to-face confrontation.
These writings are not for fortune or fame, you have nothing to lose, I
have nothing to gain, and if you wish to choice you can make your comments or
email me with your thoughts and name and we can discuss the discourse or
agreement in a civil manner, your ideas are appreciated as is the banter.
After 10 years and four thousand pages, 800,000 words and some graphics
must have a story to tell, might be my self-obituary of one person’s heave and
hell, until someone doesn’t want a permanent record of “Just Another Life” and hits
delete, but for now read whenever you want and it is all free.
Today I’ll sit at my Underwood, pecking out the letters on the page,
trying to make the words have a meaning for another mind to engage, in a
thought or reference in their own “Just Another Life”, not meaning to stir up
anger or cause any strife, but perhaps a motivation to take care of your
surroundings and possibly you might, believe ‘thinking is the best way to
travel’.
So until next time boys and girls, I’ll be out in Puppywoods watching the
rabbits and the squirrels, having a cold drink on a hot sunny day for this is
my world, you may not like it but it don’t cost you nothing so enjoy the ride,
Open your mind and take a walk inside.
