I like to write. But tonight, I'm not sure what I should write about. I mean, my wife already posts a great blog about our 3 boys. You know, the stuff that grandparents like to know. It's all from her perspective and I find it very entertaining, but what should I write about? I mean, I've got friends who blog from various cities across the globe, documenting their travels. It's all really cool stuff! Someone just saw this "really cool" old building, and this other person just hiked up a "really cool" mountain, and so and so is learning that language pretty quickly. It's all from their unique perspectives, and sometimes it's really entertaining, but what should I write about? I mean, I've got other friends who blog about their daily lives. This happened and then that happened, and there's some "great pictures" to prove it. I'm sure they really are that "cool" from their perspective, but what should I write about?
I'm really good at making stuff up. I could make up stuff and write about it. That would be fun except someone I know might read it. And it would be that someone who would take it seriously and then tell some other person about it. Then I'd start getting that weird treatment you get from people who think there's something wrong with you, but are afraid to tell you that they think there's something wrong with you.
If you think there's something wrong with me, I wish you'd just tell me. I'd rather know that you think I'm an ass than to deal with your weirdness when you're around me. There was I time when I would have not wanted you to tell me what an ass I am, but I'd rather appreciate it now. There was also a time when I would have dismissed your dis with righteous indignation because you chose to use the word "ass". Not anymore. Sometimes "those words" are the most accurate words to use. I like accuracy.
Just so you know, at this moment I don't think I'm an ass, but if you think so, please feel free to let me know. Be sure to have some good evidence though. There's nothing more assish than telling someone that they're an ass without have some solid ground from which to base your claim.
Really, right now I'm still wondering what I should wright about. I can tell you this: I'm reading a great book right now. I keep reading these two sentences over and over again: "The wisdom of the years is confusing. Only the wisdom of eternity is edifying."
That's what I want to write about. It's so brilliant, so profound, so true . . . so hard to write about. Maybe I can think of something easy to write about tomorrow.
