So I know it's been a while. I know that I've been slacking. Well, maybe not slacking. In all honesty my life has been very busy and for the first month or two of my blogging absence I was just actually really busy and couldn't take the 15 minutes to sit down and journal out my public thoughts. But if I were honest I would say that this past month I've had the time, I've had the desire but I've been struck with fear.
Will I remember how to do this?
Will anyone care anyways?
This one will have to be great after going so long not blogging...
What if it's not perfect.
Just a week or two I re-listened to a speaker that I saw back in March named Jon Acuff. He said a lot of really good stuff in his presentation but the thing that stuck out most to me was that 90% perfect and shared is better than 100% perfect and in your head.
His message reinforced that life is about a conversation to be had in community and that trying to perfect life by ourselves is a fleeting task.
Accepting that we are not perfect is not easy but it is so true! So here's my first blog after my hiatus. It might not be perfect. It might not be the shocker I wanted. But it's me and it's the start of something bigger than I could ever be alone.
Check out Jon Acuff's blog! His Oct 24th post talks about the exact same things as I'm writing here today.
