New Beginnings


I'm Alicia, wife of Dave, and mom to my three boys and one girl, all under the age of 7. Life has been rich, though it hasn't been what I had expected.

I"m Back

Posted at 1:17 PM on Aug. 13, 2007

So, it's been a really long time since I last posted an entry!!

I was inspired by my friend, Danielle's, blog to re-begin mine.  I had gotten to where all my entries were my deepest, heartfelt feelings.  It was therapeutic but became...well, exhausting.  I felt the need to only write things worth reading which meant effort.  That's the tension for a blog, isn't it.  It's really for myself, but then why not just journal on my own computer.  So, it's for others...but who really wants to read this stuff anyway? 

My resolve is that it's a site for me.  Holds me accountable to thinking and contemplating life.  What's that quote by Plato? The unexamined life is not worth living??     See, the old Alicia blogger would've checked the source and correct quote.  But, the new me is going to leave it and if you want to check it for me, please do!  I'd rather have the examined life over the examined blog!

From now on, this blog is for my unrehearsed, unrevised, and immature thoughts and daily activities.  I say immature with the express purpose of pointing out that many of my thoughts, opinions, even convictions are stated in my present state of immaturity.  I reserve the right to later recount any of my writings and the humility to later look back on my former thoughts with a cringe and thanks that God is gracious enough to bear with me through quite a large learning curve.  I hope you will be as well.

So, you've been warned and are no longer responsible to read another line of this blog.  But, if you find interest, please read on.  And, leave a comment if you have time! 

I'm Back!

Alicia

Hi Hon, I decided this morning to look through all my links and see who was still out there - and yea! to my surprise you were back and I think your blog is beautiful and extremely helpful. I would like to write a post with a link because I think you might be a real inspiration to others in your situation. Reading through a few of your posts about RDI and Steven has been so enlightening and helpful to me.

I have a confession to make as well...my blog has always been for me. It hasn't mattered to me whether or not anyone likes it, agrees or understands a thing I say...so I'm with ya.

love you,
dani
