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!

Well I Did It, I Registered A Domain Here – tonyburgess1969.net

I have a new address here for my WordPress blog… tonyburgess1969.net. I went ahead and got it because I have a feeling I will be blogging here quite a bit and I wanted to make it easier for folks to find me.

My experience here has been a good one. So I just want to sit down some cyber roots if you will. Lets see how things go. Thank you all for embracing me.

As a note I am not saying farewell to Tumblr. I think I want to be in a place where there are more creative people who are doing some really neat things. This will be good for me!

In Our Lives

I think we all need more peace, joy and grace in our lives. Recognizing many are suffering so its hard to feel any peace, have any joy or experience grace in ones life. The chaos we are exposed to daily makes it hard to be positive when negative events surround us. Many want to hide from reality but its not the way to go though.

All we can do is keep our heads up and hope things will get better. Don’t let the drama of external things keep you from taking care of the important things internally. Work for peace in your lives, have some joy that can keep you going and experience the grace of forgiveness and mercy from a higher power or from others in your life.

Being different or divergent isn’t easy.

One Thing I Like

One thing I like about the folks blogging here is that there is more actual blogging going on. I am a fan of a good original post and you can find it here. Can I say the platform is more mature and it fosters greater discussion and understanding.
