My PostSecret is . . .

For the past year I’ve been periodically checking out the blog - PostSecret. If you’ve never been there it’s a basically a site where people post their most private fears and secrets to share with the world. These fears and secrets are sent in on homemade postcards that resemble the fear or secret that they are holding onto. Most of the fears and secrets are sent in anonymously and quite often they reveal something that the individual has held onto for so long that it’s become an intricate part of this person’s life.

Life Lessons

To be quite candid, I'm not sure that I've figured out a lot in the 32 years that I've been in existence on this earth. I am quite convinced that the more I learn, the less I understand and the less I understand the more I need to learn. It's a mixed bag of growth and stagnation that seems to have pervaded much of my life.

Who knows what the day will hold . . .

Today started out like every other "Monday" (Your Friday - My Monday, Your Monday - My Friday) I got to the "cube", logged in, put the headset on and prepared to embark on a day full of listening to people who are having far more exciting days then myself.

Getting to Know God While Working in Hell with Florescent Lights

You might remember that I've got somewhere between 20 and 25 hours of forced free time, that is time that I am waiting for the phone to ring at the call center that currently pays my bills.
