So....I have had this blog for a while, in fact this is my
second blog with nothing on it so far. And you know what; there really isn't a
good reason for it to be blank. The problem so far has been me and my fear of
not blogging the perfect post. I was always wondering what people would think
about my post, will people steal my photos, that my blog will never be read, or
that I need to do some creative type of posting that I really like on other
sites. But you know what, it doesn't matter. These are not good reasons not to
post, they are excuses. But after reading my cousin's blog (Persistent Green) I feel that what I should really be concerned about is that I am expressing
myself in an honest and uplifting way. So what this blog is going to be is a
way for me to share things that bring me joy. So there may not be anything but
a picture for the day, but I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
As a getting started present from me to you, I am including in this post a high-res photo for you to use as a desktop background if you so chose. Just follow the instructions below to set the photo as your background. Kudos to whoever figures out where the photo was taken. Here is a hint, ferrygirl can’t guess.

So glad to see your blog! I often feel the same way about posting. Looking forward to seeing more posts from you!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful picture! :-)
Wow! Stunning picture! I took you up on your offer and made this photo my screen background. Thanks for the simple directions.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy your writing, Jon.
Jon, this makes me so happy! What an honor to help encourage you to dive in here. Trust me, I know all about wanting to create the perfect post.
ReplyDeleteYou know the interesting thing, though? In the past few months I've been a lot less worried about perfection and trying instead to share what's real--just like you said, in an honest and uplifting way. It's felt like much less of a burden to write and instead a very joyful thing, as I learn to take time to treasure the important things in life. The less "perfect" I strive to be in my posting, the more comments I've gotten that people are encouraged. Interesting how that works!
I'm excited to read more here and share what brings YOU joy! Love that idea!
