blogging

So I've been rather inspired by a couple of things I've just read... and maybe a little convicted that I need to actually write stuff if I want to actually do this blogging thing...

Yeah, I know. Genius right?!

But one thing that I read was from here and asked 'why we do what we do'...?

Why do I do this crazy thing that I do? I'm not really sure... but maybe I need to rethink it if I don't have an answer!

The other thing that greatly inspired me was this GREAT post from Make Mine Mid-Century, a hilarious Aussie who was so honest about her own struggles about blogging... have a read here, and if you don't laugh, well, there's something wrong with you!

So begins the serious attempt to actually do real blogging...

Meanwhile the voice in my head (yeah, I have a voice in my head, don't tell me that you don't have one coz I won't believe you!) is quickly snickering and whispering "yeah right...!"

*sigh*

What I'm reading: Does Your Culture Teach You to See People’s Differences?

Ok so I was just reading back through old blog posts I had saved to read when I had time and saw this from Don Miller:
Does Your Culture Teach You to See People’s Differences? | Donald Miller's Blog
and I was very struck by what he was saying... I'm not saying I'm a shallow chick. BUT I have to confess that the image he used grabbed me far more. I mean... look at it:

See what I mean?! I don't know where he got it from, but it paints his picture almost more than his words do. See what you think.
