An Empty Journal and an Old Phrase

Honestly, this whole thing is a little crazy.  I have invested real money and time.  It is real now.  No backing down.

*deep breath*

I got a wonderful gift for my 21st birthday.  Dee gave me a journal and told me to write in it.  She said times flies by and our memories fade but if I write them down I’ll always remember them.  That was a long time ago.  I never did write in that journal.  I still have it.  I keep it in hopes one day I’ll  write in it.

As a Web developer, I always found it odd I never had a blog.  I never felt I had anything valuable to write about.  My mind was naive and narrow.

The phrase “It’s beautiful out there” is old.  Coined by me at a wee age.  Doug, tells the story best.  However the story goes, early one morning I was looking out a picture window on to the Puget Sound.  I uttering completely entranced “it’s beautiful out there” at him.  He saw such truth and power in that statement it has lived on for decades.

It was in its memory, I created this place.  It a happy place.  A place to put all my wondrous thoughts and ideas.  My observations on life.  Tips and hints.

I have a knack for seeing the beauty in life.  That is valuable and worth sharing.  It is worth writing them down and remembering.

It is Beautiful Out There.
