Doing New Things Should Make You Stronger Or Something, Right?

Well, I have decided to jump on the old blog bandwagon and start documenting my life to some extent. I often feel bad for not being better at journal writing and other such activities that will share who I am with future generations, but honestly I hate writing in a journal. The only success I have had is with digital journals. I get frustrated that I can't write as fast as I am thinking. When I type I can almost keep up with my thoughts. I am hoping that doing the blog thing will show people a little better what I am about and how I feel about stuff. I am hoping I learn that for myself as well. I am not sure I know what I am doing with my life. I have a job and friends and most of the things that people need, but often feel that something is missing, either I am in the wrong place or I am looking for the wrong things. I am not really sure. I just graduated from college and am still in the same town starting a new job and I am grateful to still be near family and old friends, but wonder sometimes if I should have taken a giant leap for me and gone somewhere else with no friends or anything for a fresh start. I hate change and I think it may have been a good time for me to force myself into it. I will have other chances soon enough. I will just try and enjoy the time I still have with friends and hopefully I will make some new ones along the way. Well, I am going to wrap this up for now, but I will be back with the random rantings of a man who is floating about with no clue what comes next.

I started blogging for the same reason, though I got disillusioned and stopped when I realized I had to filter my thoughts to appease my "audience"- don't let that stop you though. Blogging has a lot of benefits too :)
Oh, and I think it's interesting how I'm experiencing the exact opposite - for the past few years, I have deliberately moved away and started fresh... and I wonder if I sacrificed old friends and family along the way. No regrets though. I think either way you're safe just as long as you're trying to follow the Spirit.
You've had good reasons to stick around though. I'm sure your family and friends are grateful too. :)
