"The place God calls you is the place where your deep gladness and the world's great hunger meet"
Frederick Buechner

For 21 years, i have spent my time trying to find my deepest gladness. This summer has been a catalyst. My thought process is now focused around the most self-less life possible. How do i create a life that is completely void of myself? How do i live out an unselfish life?

U-Turns

Its time to put this blog to good use. At first, I intended it to be a place to store my petty rantings or thoughts i feel too childish. I would publish posts only to delete them a week later.

This is all going to change.

Im creating a purpose for this blog. My goal is to make the everyday beautiful. I aim to express awe for the mundane. I hope to show you my delight for the ordinary. All the while, chronicling the journey that is the rest of my life.

Tomorrow is a big day. Today, i went to rock island; beauty and the extraordinary were all around. Tomorrow is Friday. That's it, there is nothing special about it.

I have to find the beauty.
