Oops I Did It Again!

I'm back.

Again.

For the last few years I have had every intention of writing a blog per week. I will accomplish this for a few weeks then go through a long stretch where I don't write a word. So here I am again, beginning again.

I'm not sure it comes through in my blog, but I am a very particular writer. No matter how simple the subject I go over it again and again to make sure I'm saying what I want to. A simple email for work can take me upwards of twenty minutes. So some of my blogs take me quite a bit of time, and that is something I don't have a lot of. I'm a husband and father of two young children. I'm running my own business which consists of one full time job and two part time ones. While the blog is good for my mental health it is pretty natural for it to fall to the bottom of my priority list.

I will always come back to blogging though. As I've said before this is my creative outlet. I've been philosophizing since I was probably fifteen years old when Marc Jenkins and I discussed the nature of God at great length. So this is just how my brain works and it needs an outlet. My mood is directly proportional to if I've written a blog this week. Even though I am engaged everyday with my family and work I just don't feel like I'm doing anything with my life if I haven't written a blog in awhile. I have no delusion that my words are changing the world or even affecting anyone, but they are out there and that is enough for me.

To those of you that read my intermittent words, thank you. From the bottom of my heart thank you.
