To Beginnings.

Here I lay. An hour past the hour I promised myself to be asleep.
One little magic "allergy relief" sleep pill downed ten minutes ago,
but I have decided NOW is a good time to begin this blog.
To begin writing the history of a new beginning in my life,
though I'm not quite sure what this entails.

Life. I've drifted through it. I've tried to grasp and tame it. And yet it is still puddled at my feet with no definitive shape or reflection. It is as dust... raw,common, ugly even. I wonder how this life I possess could really matter.

And then there is a glimmer of light, perhaps just as a last ounce of self-preservation before I fall into the deep side crazy, but all the same, I'm reminded of all of the ways that life can be beautiful. And beautifully lived...

Through Jesus Christ. I need this journey. I've craved this journey.

And now....

I'm ready to begin.
