A new site is born.
Yet its existence had been growing within my mind long before this. Although I have had other blogs, they lacked direction. Purpose.
This blog has a direction, as well as a purpose.
I believe that over the past few years I have been learning a very important lesson. I have suffered, struggled, been brought to tears, and forced to be courageous. And along the way, a theme has begun to emerge – human life is sacred.
Dignified.
This is a thought that seems as if it should stem from fundamental common sense. But I know all to well that “common sense” can so easily become lost in the blur that is often life, or trampled upon by the harsh realities that surround us on a daily basis. And as a result this truth can so easily be lost or forgotten.
It is therefore my intention in creating this blog to share my message with anyone who is interested in listening. It is a message that contains nothing new, but it is my hope that my words and thoughts can somehow keep that spark of truth alive, perhaps fanning it into the flames of knowledge and life-affirming action.
It is my desire to call others to the remembrance of their own humanity and the inherent sacredness that dwells within, providing a source of inspiration when that providential beauty can seem so completely lost or wearied at the end of the day.
It is my desire to help make certain that our humanity is remembered.
