Why the blog?

Blogging is new to me. I read many blogs, and I am usually inspired in one way or another. My grade school friend Mike has a blog of his life in Hawaii after he sold his possessions and went there with a goal of finding life's true meaning. You can read it at www.cultivate-being.com . Many of the things he is discovering are things that I am also searching for. That is part of the reason I decided to take a hiatus from working for awhile and try to slow down my life and find the things that bring meaning to life. Of course I will only attempt to be as eloquent as he is in his musings.

In my current world, I find that I spend about 90% of each day doing things I don't want to do. I go to a job I don't enjoy, I cook things that aren't what I really want to eat, but for time's sake, that I can make before it's time to watch TV. I am too tired and too filled with day to day tasks that I don't get to live. The next few months for me will be a journey, once my work time ends on May 29 that is. I plan to relax, read, do the things I want to do, and hopefully, discover the things that truly make life, life.
