For the sake of a blog...

I am now about two weeks into thinking about actually starting a blog and the questions seem to haunt me.

What should I name it? This is HUGE and keeps me up at night. What should it be about? What should it not be about? Will I include pictures? I should probably learn how to take good pictures then. Will it be only spiritual? Is that lame? Why do I automatically think that's lame? Should it be only funny? Am I even that funny? A little bit of both? Gosh, that’s a lot of pressure. Am I over thinking this? Probably.

Questions. Questions. Questions. All these questions and I am finding myself a little disgusted with how “me focused” I quickly become. So, I have decided.

My blog will highlight other people - in a good way of course and if you are lucky you just might make the cut!

Starbucks has that catchy slogan that says “Share your story” and I get the chance everyday to interact with people who God has given an amazing story. Why not share it?!

AND don’t think that I can be swayed to include you in my blog because I CAN! Money, dinner, wheat beer, movies, breakfast, football tickets, Templeton Rye, all good choices to throw your name in the hat!

All of this for the sake of a blog! Hey now, there’s a catchy name! :)
