Technology Bites…Hard!

I love technology. Every aspect of it I enjoy. When I hear about a device that will enhance my life, through speed or more power, I must have it. Luckily, I’ve learned a valuable lesson from my parents: Just because I want it doesn’t mean I need it. Thanks Mom and Dad!

Anyways, since I started writing in this blog I have tried to take it very seriously. I have sought time where I could freely type out thoughts roaming around in my head. And apparently the idea of journaling and blogging has become addictive in my family. My beautiful wife, MaryEllen, has also been bitten by the blogging bug (check hers out sometime).

But in taking Blogging serious, I have to also take the method in which blogging happens seriously; Technology. Twice last week I tried to blog, and twice I fail to have my thoughts published. I spent hours trying to get the right words and phrases together to express myself clearly. Then when it came time to publish, the title was the only thing from my hard work which remained. I became so frustrated that I Almost vowed to give up blogging all together. But after a long, good weekend, I’m back. This time ready to work with technology rather than against it and realize that sometimes God Doesn’t always want us to Release everything that is on our minds to the general public.

    So are you saying that your user error was God? Or was God deleting your posts? Or does God blog? If so…what is His url?
