Well, what at first was a fleeting moment of conviction from a now fellow blogger and good friend has turned into a reality. I am a blogger!
At first the idea of blogging seemed kind of self centered and pointless. But now I find it intriguing. Before any assumptions are made, this is not going to be the type of blog that just records the monotony of my day or my petty complaints. My desire, rather, is to post about things that are controversial. Things like religion, politics and the thoughts I have that surprise even me (as if anybody really cares).
But isn't that the point of blogging? To put your thoughts into cyberspace for your own satisfaction? Who really reads blogs? Perhaps if you are a celebrity that takes time out of their day to post your deep, intimate thoughts, people read it, but most commonly blogs don't have that many dedicated readers (please correct me if I'm wrong)!
So, the point of this blog is to make you (the person who is spending their valuable time reading my blog instead of doing better things) think. The mind is a powerful tool that many people take for granted, so let it be no more!
Therefore, with an open mind and no censor between my thoughts and the world wide web, I embark on this personal journey. Moreover,a covenant to myself and to my readers to not take things at face value, to question everything people tell you and to form your own opinions around the convictions that you and I have formed through our life experiences.
