I have come to the conclusion I am judgmental. Everyone is to some extent, me included. Perhaps it comes from me being an idealist who thinks everyone should think and be similar to me or think as I do. That sort of goes against one of the big parts of my faith. I am very grateful that my creator helped make forgiveness a reality with His Son. The one thing I can say is that I might have a little something in me that thinks that not everything that happens that isn’t right is about me. Some of you would call that narcissistic tendencies. All I can say is that I am very human and I do screw up. Something happened today that triggered that realization of me being judgmental. My wife called me on it and its something I need to work on. Maybe its time to open my heart and mind a little more, well there’s no maybe, it’s time.

My blog unlike my Facebook timeline is where I tend to be more open and authentic. Unfortunately you have to censor yourself on Facebook because some followers there don’t always agree with you on politics, religion, sports, etc.

Here I do reserve the right to express myself, less filtered. I will share more here than I will there. Even though we won’t agree 100% on everything we will have more in common and be respectful of each other’s differences.

Bloggers tend to be more thoughtful, caring and passionate. We also work on making the world a better place, although we do it from different perspectives. It’s OK to disagree but it seems that we tend to have productive dialogue and conversations in the blogosphere.

I salute each of you for being who you are and how you were made. You are an original and you share the best and worst of you and it shouldn’t be any other way.
