Jumping off a bridge.

I’ll go first. No problem.

For those of you who don’t know already, this blog is meant to serve as an outpost for, uh, whatever. I’ve had a few blogs in the past. Most of them angered my friends more than I would have liked. Well, let me rephrase. I didn’t mind that it angered them so much, but it was never the intention. You see, if I’m going to talk about something, I want to raise a discussion about it. Faith is a great topic for this, but an unfortunately passionate one for too many people, leading to, well nearly the loss of a few friends.

It’s not so hard to believe that people can become to passionate and outraged about the things they hold dear to them, but the internet is a really bad forum for these types of discussions. The first reason, I believe, is that it gives them too much freedom to rant on about something without giving me the chance to say ‘Woah, wait a minute now, that’s not what I’m saying!’ Needless to say, my two short times blogging were fun but powerful learning lessons as what not to say on the internet.

But passion is what drives me to write, talk, yell, scream at the top of my lungs. Passion is what drives so many people to succeed. Passion can destroy the world. Passion can save it, too. Passion should save it, but all too often it’s used for evil and not good. This blog will be the passion outlet for several of us, and not necessarily just for faith or life’s journey. Everything from tech, to road rage, to food, to movies, to books, to music, to… yeah I’m going to stop now.

So here we are. You and I. I’m writing this crap, and once again, you’re reading it. I almost feel bad for you. I say almost because I really enjoy looking at the site statistics you all generate by reading this mindless garbage. So I’m okay with you being here, wasting precious moments of your life that I can’t give back to you. Suckers.

There it is. I’ve jumped off the bridge with my friends yet again. Back to blogging. Talk at you later.
