I am an idiot, and yet, here I am again. I just posted another "personal" blog on a group blog (emergingcggc). Like that's not embarrasing enough, I used the Axle Rose quote "I used to be an asshole, now I'm a rich asshole." I HATE that that other blog gets sent off to who-knows-how-many-people's emails. I was able to delete it right away, but I'm sure it's already been shipped off to their emails. I am an idiot. An American idiot, and un-american idiot, a world-class idiot, a universal idiot!
Anyway, the Axle Rose quote was in reference to some of the posts on the leadership blog. I just think some pastors are too full of themselves. But, as soon as I say that, I am probably fuller of myself than any of them. Forgive me, Father.
I also posted a revised quote from Bruce Thielemann, former dean of the chapel at Grove City College. He used the words "pulpit" and "preach" instead of "blog":
The blog calls those anointed to it as the sea calls its sailors. And like the sea it batters and bruises and does not rest. To blog, to really blog, is to die naked a little at a time, and to know each time you do it that you are going to do it again."
Man, was that ever a relevant quote to post. I am an idiot. A naked one. I think I even said something in the post I deleted about not wanting to blog anymore - because it's hard not know if anyone is reading; what they're thinking; etc.
Well... maybe I should quit. peace. no revolution today. I need peace. sorry.
