- Sometimes I spend so much time and energy trying to not be like certain people, that I lose sight of the One I am trying to be like (Jesus). I want to give up the notion of trying to compensate for those I feel misrepresent Jesus, and concentrate more on simply following Him.
- I've been making a few minor changes to my blog - removing some things from the sidebar and whatnot. I don't want to have a "fancy" blog or anything. I want to go back to just writing down my thoughts and questions and things as I journey though life as a follower of Jesus. There are some things I can't really say due to my occupation, but I'm usually fairly open and honest. Which is probably where the dangerous (title) part comes in the most. Baring one's soul can be messy sometimes, and you might not always like what you see. I don't ever mean to be offensive, but I'm working on watching what I say for the sake of others.
- I want to go back to a simple faith. Sometimes it's easy for me to get so wrapped up in the questions that I forget that I know the One that knows the answer. Sometimes I think I spend so much time thinking about things that I'm unable to hear the still small voice. There is no mistaking that I am a simpleton, but I want to make sure it's as a fool for Christ and not just as a fool.
- I want to go back to trying to see everyone as God sees them. Seeing the potential in people; seeing people as fellow strugglers just trying to find our way; one beggar helping another... that sorta thing.
- I want to be a child again. Not in my thinking, but in my faith. Living up to the calling I've received, but with wonder and awe and a possibility outlook.
- I would like to change the title of my blog again. I have never really liked "Danno's Dangerous Mind." And I don't even remember all the different one's I've had: peace revolution, broken whiskey glass... I know there were more. But I will stick with this because it really doesn't matter, and... well... it doesn't really matter.

Oh SURE... let's do everything YOU want to do. What about the hefty subscription fee I pay?! I could have a year of Sports Illustrated for what you're charging me monthly! And they'll give me a football phone!
Frankly I can't imagine the kind of person who would be offended by your blog... I'd imagine someone who was looking to be offended by SOMEthing, just to give their opinion. And if some day you run across someone of that ilk, I strongly encourage you to dismiss them and play to the "normal" crowd.
I think you have summed up many of my thoughts...exactly...imagine that...
