Yesterday, I went back through the archive of posts to this blog and discovered that the first post was on August 3, 2007. Happy Belated Birthday to Lunch Box Catechism!
I orginally started the blog as an experiment to see if I could regularly contribute some thoughts to current events. Looking back over a year of posts, I recalled that some posts were really good and some were somewhat of a waste of words. In terms of the content and regularity of the postings, there were dry spells and periods of abundance. Some of the posts have been very "edgy" and some have been pretty bland.
My sources for inspiration are many. I get ideas from newspapers, TV news, radio news, websites and other blogs. However, my best source of inspiration for my best posts have been recollections of people - some whom have gone on to their eternal reward and some who still roam the earth. Like everyone, I have had to endure difficult times in my life. However, I have truly led a charmed life thanks to many of the people that have been the subjects of some of my posts. At some point, I hope to write some type of manuscript that includes many of these people and the impact that they have had on my life. They are truly saints - especially given that, in some manner, they had to put up with me.
Thank you for putting up with me in the "blogosphere".
