Mind Heart and Spirit

There are some things that aren't really written. Just uncontainable thoughts and feelings that force themselves into something other than their dark hiding place inside someone's head or heart. This might seem like an over poetic view of what people see as gonzo journalism or beat writing, or what have you, but I see it as much more than that. It's an opening of something more than your inhibitions can even attempt to touch. It is what you're feeling and thinking all at the same time hitting the page at full trot and working side by side. Albeit a lot of the times it can end up being complete and utter nonsensical gibberish, but even beyond that it's more for the writer's experience anyway. It's their form of art and they are expressing their whole self as openly as they can muster. And the same as any other art there are going to be a good number of people that don't really "get it" or they "you know I see why people like it but it's just not for me."

I kind of feel like that's what's happening to me right now. I haven't written on this blog, or really anywhere for that matter, in almost a year. Until tonight when I got inspired by listening to a song and it made me really feel like it was time to open that door again. So I thought I'd fling it wide open. Not for anybody's sake. But to just feel this again. Feel what it's like to dictate in a more comprehensive way as to what goes on in my mind.

So I hope to start this up once more and give it more of a consistant pulse than with which it was operating before. Some of you read my first few blogs but I'd assume that the majority of you who will read this now are completely new. And to both of you, I hope you'll stick with me.

"Therefore if there is any encouragement in Christ, if there is any consultation of love, if there is any fellowship of the spirit, if any affection and compassion, make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose." (Philippians 2: 2 NASB)

Thank you and God bless.
