I'm back!

My aplogies for the recent lapse in posting... I was out of town for a week. But that's not a good excuse. No excuse is a good excuse. The old cliche of "where there's a will, there's a way" is true. If we want something bad enough, we can get it. Hence my apology. I enjoy doing this blog, but I let excuses and considerations stop me. I wonder why people are so suceptible to being stopped from accomplishing the things they claim are important to them. Is it laziness? Is it fear? Maybe. And maybe it's an innate drive to expend as little energy as possible. Considerations give us an escape from having to move. It's so much easier to flap our mouths about what the world should look like and what we want to achieve, but then lay on the couch instead. For me, it's a daily struggle to pursue the things I proclaim as my goals. Dreaming about them requires less effort. And in not trying, I can trick myself into thinking I didn't fail. In fact, not trying is the worst kind of failure. So... it's come to this... if you speak it, work to make it a reality, no matter what "it" is. And, if you find yourself on the couch, get up! After a short while, you may find yourself back there again. It's ok. Get up again! That's the daily struggle of life. I'm back... you can expect regular posts from now on...
