Half-way there...

My martial arts teacher used to say, "When you start, you're half-way there."  Well...after all the excuses not to start a blog, I'm half-way there...whatever that means.  Anyway, I suppose one reason I'm doing this is that, while I don't have a pulpit, forum, or platform anymore after retiring from the active ministry, I still have thoughts and, I hope, a few more things to say.

I'm astounded when someone remembers what I've preached, said, taught, or written; and I'm humbled.  I will be equally humbled and astounded at any readership this blog might create.  However, I must say that this endeavor is a "me thing" right now.  I miss having a place and opportunity to say something.  When I was preaching, I used to repeat something a friend said..."Sometimes we preachers have something to say, and sometimes we have to say something."

I'll try to post random thoughts and inviting questions because I deem them worthy and not because I just need to say something.

So....I've begun something here.  I'm curious about where it will end up...
