Rambling About Being Social

Humans for the most part are social creatures. Perpetual isolation goes against our nature. Granted some people like to be alone but even then the need for interaction is good for them. We cannot think of ourselves as an island out there in a vast ocean. Every human being is connected in one way or another through something. No matter who you are there are times when you need a warm embrace that reminds you that you are indeed special. We all need that company that helps us get through life when tough times come. People are informed by the conversations they have with others who share their experiences. Learning from others is important to help us not make the same mistakes they have made. Everyone needs somebody, somebody to hold. Being social is being very human indeed.

A New Church Experience

This morning we worshipped at St. Peters Episcopal Church here in Chattanooga. The air conditioning was broken here in the nave/sanctuary so we worshipped in the fellowship hall. They were friendly and we felt welcomed. It’s a beautiful church that also has a school attached.

A Ramble About Misunderstanding

Thanks for being my blogging pals. If i say something screwy let me know. Life is too short to lose people to misunderstandings. Communication can solve a lot of issues before they become issues. Think about how many relationships have been sunk due to people saying something that was not understood in the right spirit. We all need to take a minute to listen and offer a chance for someone to clarify their words. Peace is still needed in our world and its our friendships where it can start first.

Reblogging

I don’t reblog a lot of stuff unless it supports the overall theme of my blog. It’s not that I am a snob or anything but I like doing my own posts. The blog has my name on it and I should be about doing posts that are hand crafted by me. One day I will have a guest blogger here but I will be very picky about who that is.

When someone reblogs my content I don’t mind it. However when its a highly personal post or has an image of myself then its just a little strange.  Granted I know this is a blog that is open and available for everyone to see but I do think we should all be respectful of personal posts and images that are best left to the blog of their creator and not someone elses.

Just a thought.
