Having fun yet?
A friend told me that a blog was the beginning of an unexpected journey. We may think we control the content and the path, but the blog itself quickly takes on a life of its own. You find yourself seeing new aspects in truths you had assumed to be fully established, and following your mind down wilderness paths that suddenly popped up among cultivated fields. I had no idea I was still so unsettled on questions of faith and policy, until I started reading what I was writing.What helps me most frame questions in my own mind and seek new thoughts is the amazing quality of interaction, even so early on in this exploration. Thanks to the comments and e-mails I’ve received already, I’m being challenged to take fresh viewpoints, and clarify and define old ones.
I really appreciate those of you who have sent this out to far-flung places, thus widening even further the range of ideas and insights. Tomorrow I’ll post a blog on education. But for tonight, I’ll just go with my own thank-you card – a picture taken on our most recent trip (to Sedona, Arizona).
