Back in the Blog-Saddle Again

Thanks to my friends and family, who seemingly never say outright what I "should" do, and instead just fill me with love and knowledge and perspective, hoping I deduce effectively and act accordingly...........I am returning with (semi) commitment to blogging.........

My last post was in March, as I was in the airport returning from Africa. The chronicles of that safari-like experience are there for the taking, but its time I now do what I believe I "should" - continue to blog without a specific purpose in mind, as was the case of creating the blog for the Africa trip.

So what has happened in the last 8-9 months? While I could begin to backtrace, instead I will just say "life", with all its ups and downs, pro's and con's, etc. For certain, as I allow myself to step back through this year, I conclude only that I am SO blessed, fortunate, and just where God wants me (whatever that really means).

This year, I have endured, survived, thrived, prospered, learned, and more. Far more than just "marking time", I have contributed to myself, my family, my friends, my church, my community in a variety of ways.

Simultaneously, I have learned from, leaned on, relied on, interacted with, used, abused, laughed and cried, planned and executed, and more - with that very same audience of family, friends, etc.

In all of this year, and in my annual reflection of 2008, I realize both my dependency on others, as well as my independent nature. I am not complete by myself; more than just a comfort level, I simply do not exist as a full-functioning life form without human interaction and purpose. In this single reflection now comes new perspective and new commitment to continue my life journey embracing all that is within, and all that is around. After 56+ years, its about freekin' time.

So, to my readers, I resolve to periodically (for it wouild be foolish to state "daily") use this forum for providing insights into the essence of PortaWop Logic....

I like the look into you I, unlike you, am just fine and dandy as me myself alone. I have a life long with Hubs so it isn't just me but I would be fine if it were just me. Maybe not entirely true I dig my new blog friends. They get me and I them.
