Now, please do not confuse this statement with a complaint, for it is not. Deliberation, contemplation, and intentionality all combine to serve as the additives for the fuel driving my life. (Ok, I may have creatively made-up some words, but did not take the time to verify them.) This "life from a fishbowl" prepared me to live life on purpose. Live it too seriously? Perhaps, at times. Overall I feel that whatever I'm doing, whether enjoying an activity, working, writing, or procrastinating, is driven by a thought process concluded by a decision. After all, I never know who may be watching, right?
The reverse side to the title of this blog refers to the glass pane from which I view and analyze the world around me as I swim round and round in my little bowl. So, be forewarned! At times you'll hear about life from within the bowl and what I think about life outside.
Some of you have requested many times that I start a blog. I've fought joining this cyber-bandwagon as I fail to see any original thoughts I obtain which need to be shared. I shared this with one of my friends who I've known most of my life when she encouraged me yet again to begin a blog. I recall asking, "What do I need a blog for? I don't have kids or anything important to keep up with in my life." The answer seemed obvious to her as she very pointedly said, "Because, Hannah, you have things to say."
Do I really? I'm still not convinced, but I made a promise that I would begin a blog. So, here we go. I'm on the cyber-bandwagon. This is my blog.
