le purpose du b'log

I have no idea what I’m doing.

Blogging. What purpose for this blog, I have not yet decided. Honestly, I’m afraid to share thoughts out in public. Fears of being wrong, criticized, or “too honest” and offending someone; making mistakes; failing at whatever keeps me from typing. Communicating ideas, valid theories, accurate stories, and correct grammurr, I will certainly botch.

Why are being right and liked so important to me? This is an ongoing struggle stemmed from my pride that prevents me from many things, particularly right now, from releasing these thoughts.

Being right is overrated.

My dad taped a quote to my bathroom mirror once when I was in high school – it feels related to my mood:

“While one person hesitates because he feels inferior, the other is busy making mistakes and becoming superior.”

Plan on finding many mistakes in this blog, as well as possibly offensive content (grammatically and literally), as I intend on keeping entries respectful, positive, honest, bold, contradicting, inspiring, succinct, confusing, artistic, boring, raw, thoughtful, beautiful, human.

...how the heck do you rotate images in blogger?? bah...

Modification suggestions welcome. 

something so beautiful it hurts (a series)

"Have you ever experienced something so beautiful that it hurts?"

A friend asked me once as we were gazing out at a sunset panorama, the sky dome above us changing from brilliant reds to yellows to deep indigo hues. I felt the answer within that stunning moment. I didn’t want the scene to end – it did. Time imprisons sweet disposition.

A year later, the question continues to intrigue conversation with others. The answers people give are unique and endless…

What would you say is something you’ve experience so beautiful that it tastes bittersweet?
