It's A Me Thing

Today is Sunday, a day of rest. I realize that it is just another day for most, but I tend to try to make it a day that has no plans. That way I fool myself into believing that it is my day of "rest." Then I am free to do whatever I feel like doing without having the stress of  time engagements. Does anybody else have to fool yourself? Sounds weird but it works for me!!

This is my first time to blog. I am on a self discovery journey and part of that is wanting to not be afraid of stating my opinions. I admire people who state their opinions not caring what people think. Well, I'm sure they care, but they are not afraid of the conflict that they might encounter. I hate conflict. I am a scaredy cat. Sometimes my beliefs are not tangent. I cannot open a book and tell you "HERE IT IS" in black and white. I cannot prove some of them, I just know what I have lived and learned. Some are issues of the heart. Like the big one...God. I know that he is real, nobody talked me into it, and NOBODY can talk me out of it. I'll get in to more of that later.

Anyway, I am going to use this forum to be open about what I know to be true and maybe someone will be able to find themselves here and there. I just don't want to waste my time here on this earth and not try to stand for something that may be helpful to someone else. God went through the trouble of putting breath into me, there must be a reason for it.

Besides being afraid to talk about my opinions because of conflict, I don't want people to think I'm stupid. HA HA! That is a real big one for me! One person's "stupid" is another person's genius! Ha. I'm not really smart, but I like to feel that way sometimes. I don't take myself that seriously most of the time.  It's kind of fun and lackadaisical. Easy to hide that way. But the whole purpose of this blog is to share about things that I see and feel are true. It's a ME thing. If I put myself down, it is probably just to get a laugh, I'm not hung up on feeling bad about myself. I'm functional and fairly happy! I'm going to have fun with this, and at times be serious. Sometimes I laugh and sometimes I cry. Together maybe we can walk this life stronger.
