Just over 1 year ago I began to keep a journal.  I was driven to journaling by a girl.  Since November 20, 2008 (11-20-08, if you’re using OJD* format), I have scribbled down prayers, thoughts, songs, rants, prayers, poems, Greek forms of the definite article, prayers, and occasional notes on things.  Sometimes I write in my journal every day.  Other times it sits unopened between the stereo and the speaker, in a pile with rest of the books I don’t open enough.

Besides the catharsis of writing, what keeps me returning to my journal is reading.  To read entries from months ago is a beautiful experience.  My journal is a record of how I used to be, and how I’ve grown.  God’s grace.

I suppose this blog is similar, yet quite different.  While my journal is a record of who I’ve been, this blog is a record of who I’ve presented myself to be.  How embarrassing.  On several occasions, I’ve come very close to deleting this blog altogether.  But I continue to feel the urge to present myself through this unique medium.  And, as I read past entries, I can track the same development as with my journal.  I’ve grown.  And I’m growing.  And none of these posts exist apart from the others.

So I will continue blogging, and trying to avoid using phrases like, “my blog”, “I was blogging”, or “you know, I blogged about that recently”, in conversation (I’m still not entirely ready to be that guy).  And I will continue journaling.

Alas, I have hipster tendencies.

Last Saturday two of my best friends and I played a show at our favorite coffee shop.  We go by the name Autumn Caller.  It comes from one of our songs.  That night we released an EP of five songs (which you can hear if you click on the “Autumn Caller” on the right side of this page).  It was a good night.  I’m glad the CD is out of my hands and now stands as it is.  I am finally able to move on from those songs and develop my music more freely

Thanks, Brook, for taking these.
