I've never blogged before.... I don't know the lingo.... the mechanics, nor if anything I have to say is even worth reading. But let's give it a try. My son is an avid blogger and much more of a deep thinker than me. He is at this site. I, on the other hand, tend to be a bit simpler - using smaller words and shorter sentences.
I hope to Think Out Loud about subjects such as leadership, relationships, life issues, generational topics..... maybe more.
Today, I'm just wondering if blogging will be worth my while. What do I expect from it? Why invest the time & effort? Will anyone actually read and comment? Let's get started.... and see!
Yesterday was our 27th wedding anniversary! Quite an accomplishment these days. I started something on our 1st anniversary that I have faithfully continued every year. I give my wife a rose for every year that we have been married. Sweet huh? Great idea 27 years ago.... now, it's getting pretty pricey. Don't get me wrong: she is worth every penny I paid for the bouquet...she's "priceless". But maybe 27 years ago I could have had better long range planning and started with a daisy, or carnation, or M & M, or car wash gift card.... Am I sounding cheap?
She tries to talk me out of it every year...."take a picture of 27 roses instead...it will be just as good". She says so, but I've got 27 years of quite a streak going here. I don't want to break the tradition! I love my wife.... and I know she loves me....and the Tradition.
