So...
I've been meaning to write this for some time. Largely since I got back fromSkiing in Switzerland but it's taken me a while to rediscover the fire. I'm a big fan of reading other peoples blogs but I thought it is quite a handy way of getting down your own thoughts. I'm also contemplating not telling anyone I'm writing this and seeing if anyone ends up reading it, through chance/stalking/bizarre conincidence.
I was struggling to think of a title. But then I thought what will this incur, which "department" if you will, of my thoughts will this encompass? And I think, although not exclusively, it will be my more "spiritual" (oh I do dislike that word, it has some air of petty superiority possibly put on it my yours truely!) thoughts that come out. As well as random things I see and like and feel need to comment upon! However on second thoughts I thought I would just leave be as something rather normal
I find it interesting that there are many many multitudes of people on the planet, everyone with a different story. But more than that, our stories (fortunately for otherwise it would be very lonely) cross paths thus bending warping and changing other people's stories. Sometimes (I like to think often) for better and sadly sometimes for worse.
My blogging story starts here. After having lots of thoughts after my holiday to the Swiss, I thought I would post them here. However due to the lack of organisation (my main downfall) they have skipped my mind as it has been something like 4 weeks since I got back and have been on another holiday since then!
I was awesomely privileged to go to Egypt. My best friend is spending a year out there and so 4 of us (Me, his fiancée, his brother and his fiancées brother! (Quite a family affair) went out to see him.
It was a real mixture of emotions that week! There were some tears (many from laughter, some from sadness) Some frustration (like trying to be ripped of by one egyptian cab dirver and my friend coming out with the line "I'm not a retard" in Arabic!) All in all a wonderful adventure to a new culture. I took 500 photos while I was there (I love photography) and I have put 150ish up on my photo website Click this link for photos! Anyway! The point of this is that I was vaguely hoping that I would get a good chance to chat to my best friend about being a christian and some of the struggles I've been having. However this never really happened. Due to noone's (is it noone or no one?) fault. So in that sense the trip wasn't quite as successful as I had hoped. But it was wonderful none the less!.
So I think as this blog progresses it might move and twist and turn. I am not going to say I'll update/post a new post every week because I will only disappoint myself, but when something comes to mind or I need to get something out I shall update and expect no one (I tried the other one this time) to read it. As it is I am also trying to figure out how to blog from my (much loved (a little too much)) iPhone. But as it is I shall just enjoy reading the blogs I do so far and see what happens with this!
Done for now.
