First Forrays Into the Blogosphere...

Well, I've finally taken the plunge and gotten a blog. Which is ironic considering I'm a web developer by trade and have built blogs for OTHER people, but never for myself. I took the easy way out and went with Blogger rather than setting up a custom WordPress site, which sounded too much like work. I just want to write stuff, you know?

I've been thinking seriously of getting a blog for the last several months. The thing that finally pushed me over the edge was finding out that my friend SallyMandy was writing a cool blog on a variety of interesting subjects. I've known Sally for over 10 years, but had no idea she was a blogger until a couple of months ago (thanks Facebook).

Seeing her write from her heart finally made me feel like I have something to say too, although I don't know what it is or how it's going to come out. I feel I have a lot to say about recovery, suffering, childhood, and family-of-origin issues, along with sexuality and emotional and spiritual growth.

Sally, you were the impetus for all this, so THANKS!

  1. Well gee, Gweb! Thanks to YOU. You have all kinds of things to say and I know you're going to do well at this. You're a natural writer and heart-speaker. In my experience, it doesn't matter if we know what we have to say. We write to find out what we have to say. And then it's way cool when other people say, "Wow, you spoke for me too."

    I feel sure that's going to happen for you.

    Geez. Ten years!? Long time, good friend.
