Does anyone read this?

First of all it has been a long time since I blogged. That's becaues I'm not sure anyone reads this. But I have decided that even if no one reads this than I can use it as some form of free therapy, or at the very least some sort of journal.

I was looking at different blogs around the net and I came to realize that I don't know what to blog about! Some bloggers have exciting jobs that take them all around the world, seeing interesting places and meeting new people. The farthest place I've traveled recently is Moncton New Brunswick.

Other bloggers have deep insights and are really gifted at capturing these thoughts, birthing discussion and debate. I've come to realize that I am not a gifted thinker, I'm very pragmatic with a " if it ain't broke, don't fix it" mentality.

So what could I have to offer to the blogging community out there? What could say that would allow my post to stand out? In other words what would my angle be? I debated taking on the voice of the common lowly pastor, the one who doesn't get called up on stage or invited to speak at major events, the pastor who isn't overly gifted, but has enough to get by. The voice of the plebes so to speak. That seemed alright but it sounded a little to "french revolution" to me, and as we all know, revolutions take a lot of work. I don't have the time for that kind of commitment.

I have decided that my angle for this blog is that I'm not going to have any angle. Like the pirates of the phillipines, I'll plunder and pillage good information from "good" bloggers and put it on my blog, and share random things when I feel the leading to do so.

When you've put in a hard day or there is a task that you just want to put off, then come by and visit trust me it will be time well wasted.
Blessings,
Brandon
