Day 2: January 22nd

Well, I have 33 minutes left in Day 2 to write something profound….

29 minutes….

Alright, I’m throwing profound out the window.  When I initially imagined this blog, I had hoped it would be interesting.  Potentially inspiring. But here I am, two days in, and I am realizing that the day-to-day is less than inspiring, or interesting, it is mostly bland.

So, for now I will equate this blog to my 4th grade science project.  You know, the one where you plant seeds in little red Dixie cups and put them in the sunshine. Everyday rushing over to see if your plants had grown.  Remember how painful the first two weeks were? Nothing but dirt.  Brown, boring dirt. Then, finally , the tiny green sprout would push its way to the surface.  That is how I would like to think of this blog.  Interesting and inspiring are here, somewhere, they just haven’t made their way to the surface yet.  I am still in the first two painful weeks.  Still pushing through the dirt, to the sunshine.  After all, every flower (or in this case, a bean) has to go through a lot of dirt before it blooms. 

Until then, I’ll continue to shovel the dirt, and hope for tomorrow.  Maybe tomorrow will be just as boring… maybe it won’t be.
