I've been writing this blog for a long time now. Little tidbits of life-stuff and things I find interesting, which I think/hope you might find interesting too.
Yet it never seems to go anywhere. Sometimes I wonder what's the point.
Well, I dunno, but maybe it's simply about me learning to tell better stories. You know, because stories are what we need. They help us navigate life. Through them we can find meaning in ordinary everyday things. Stories make life go 'round!
I stumbled on this page 'Nothing Is Boring: How To Tell Gripping Stories About the Seemingly Mundane.' I was drawn in by the simplicity of storytelling:
Status quo.
Tension.
Resolution.
You can read the linked article for the details, but it made me want to write more on my blog. I've been neglecting it - thinking I didn't have time anymore. You know, maybe that's a sign I need to MAKE time... for simpler things... more important things. I need to resolve to write more, so I can tell better stories.

Luke 8:38-39
"The man from whom demons had gone out begged to go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying, “Return home and tell how much God has done for you.” So the man went away and told all over town how much Jesus had done for him."
