Hello World!

Hello world, here I am! Embrace or shun me if you will.

I sit here trying to come up with a fantastic way to start this off, but I wonder why bother? Why should I care if some random obscure person finds me interesting or boring. If I do this blog based on worrying about what others will think I’m afraid I won’t be true to myself. That to me is the greatest sin of all.

I must warn you, obscure little person, I have scattered thoughts and they do not tend to follow a straight path. Try your best to stay with me though on this journey that’s known as life and I’ll do my best to update and provide assistance along the way.

I have discovered in the past year that religion is very important to me. It was always something in the back of my mind growing up, but the importance never seemed to hit me until earlier this year. I feel like in this world of calamity and chaos it is so important to have something to believe and have faith in. I like knowing that even though I’m not sure what exactly the future will bring I will always have something to rely on. Something that will fill me with comfort. I challenge you to find something you too can believe in. It can be whatever you want it to be. It doesn’t have to be a religion, it just needs to be something that you feel can help you be the person you’ve always wanted to be. However, if that person if a crook or villain then you have serious issues.

Staying on the topic of religion, I promise this won’t focus strictly on religion, I had this crazy thought today. There was an earthquake tonight, apparently a 3.3 on the scale. I know to some people that may not seem like a big deal, but to me it was. I don’t know if it’s because this is the first earthquake I have recollection of or what, but I found myself thinking about some things. I believe that there will be a second coming of the Messiah. When, I have not a clue, but I know that it will happen. These plates moving made me think about that for whatever reason.

I wonder, am I doing the things I should be doing?

Am I truly living my life in the way I want to?

If the Millennium comes tomorrow will I be happy with the work I have done?

I don’t know that I am.

I know perfection isn’t expected, but effort is. I think I need to get down and put a little elbow grease into life.
