So my good friend Justin emails me and tells me he's decided to start writing a blog. Justin and I talk frequently, and we enjoy a plethora of similar viewpoints on life. Justin deploys an essential element in his daily life which I often times fore go. That element being "Tact" or just a general respect for his fellow man. Truth is, Justin's an idiot. A Scribbling Idiot to be exact... (If you're not sure what a Scribbling Idiot is, I suggest you get with the times and expand your horizons.) I'm striving to be more tactful in my daily life and interaction with the world. It's somewhat necessary in my line of work, and trust me, God is working on me in this area. Regardless, reading his blog (linked in my blogs section) inspired me to get off my hump and do the same. Now, I'm not necessarily sure any of you reading this will care, but I plan to blog as often as possible, as long as I have something worthwhile to say. Lord knows, that's not as often as I open my mouth to actually say something. Too bad we don't have a blog filter in our daily lives, right?
I've titled my blog the same as my latest album, "Same As It Never Was" and with good reason. It's somewhat my outlook on life. Everything is in a constant state of change, the world around us, our minds, our spirits, our relationships, etc... Yet life remains the same since the inception of time, and God's creation of mankind. We serve the same purpose, day in and day out. So while life changes, it's still the same. There's "nothing new under the sun" and it's safe to say there's "nothing new under the Son" as well. Therefore, life remains the same as it never was. Deep, right? I'm a modern day philosopher, aka an idiot. These are just my ramblings. I'll do my best to post often, but I won't promise to do so.
Thanks for the inspiration, Justin. If this blog falls short of any one's expectations of me, blame him.
