I wish I could say that launching this new blog at the start of Lent was a carefully thought out plan. That this blog would be some kind of Lenten act of service. But that just isn't the truth. The truth is that I finally got some kind of handle on what this blog would be about and even got a bit of writing done for it. I knew that I could spend months fine tuning and perfecting it, but it would never be perfect. So I figured it was time to step out and just get it started.
And that is important because in a large sense that is what this blog is about. It is about taking steps on a journey. We can pick our destination, we can pack our bags, we can buy our tickets, we can even kiss our loved ones goodbye. But until we step out the door, until we put leather to bricks our journey has not begun.
So I pick up my walking stick and head out the door. I will stumble over root and rock along the way. I may even lose my way from time to time. The wind may be in my face, the sun nowhere to be found. But with a good pair of boots and an eye to the horizon I will take another step.
