All posts by Tony Burgess

Hi there, my name is Tony Burgess (my friends call me T-Bird) from Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA. I am a believer, bleeding heart, idealist, and blogger. I'm married to Laura the Soup Diva and a dog dad to Frankie, Cody, and Mikey. Daily I work for a blood bank recruiting donors. My blog is where I chronicle and curate the sacred, serious, and silly things in my life. I am a member of The Episcopal Church. Thank you for connecting with me. Grace, peace, and love!

Imagine Dragons: “Radioactive”

From the soundtrack of “The Host”. I love the feel and story of this song. It somehow speaks to me.

Movie of The Night: “The Host”

From IMDB: When an unseen enemy threatens mankind by taking over their bodies and erasing their memories, Melanie will risk everything to protect the people she cares most about, proving that love can conquer all in a dangerous new world.

This is the movie of the night. For some reason I am in the mood for dystopian movies. Perhaps its a reflection of the times we are living in. It’s not good for everyone at the moment but better for others. Art imitates life so they say.

Me and my sous chef Cody. He is more supportive than anything. I am grateful for the help though. via Instagram http://ift.tt/1NebIOW

WordPress…The Place For Grownups

I have concluded after being on WordPress for some time now that for a grown up (or a grown up at heart) its a much better place to be than Tumblr. I feel I can write here and be more respected with less judgement. If someone disagrees with you there is a level of civility and respect by-in-large. The bloggers here are committed to creating original works and are willing to share about themselves and their lives which is supportive and affirming. I also think the tools and technology offered here make your blog a feature rich site where you can bring all your work from other places here.

Don’t get me wrong I appreciate deeply my friends from Tumblr, they are great people. The atmosphere there can be a bit challenging sometimes. I just find myself in a much better space to create  and to be inspired by others who are doing the same here at WordPress.
