This post is my 1,213 blog post I’ve ever written.  I wonder how many words are included?  I wonder how many repetitive posts are included?  I wonder how many posts, written to me, by me, for me, have impacted someone else?  Bug Guts may be my favorite post in general because I know one person who was impacted by it and helped me see how God uses me.  Plus, I gained a trusted friend and advisor in the process.  It generally reappears every year in September for personal reasons.

When (hopefully not if) I get a paying job and get my finances back in order, I want to hire someone to catalog my posts and help me create a book.  The Random Ramblings of a Baffling Buffoon may be a good working title.  So much of what I have written has come straight from the heart about a journey I started with God some eight years ago.  They are personal though not too detailed to protect the innocent and the guilty, but they are honest about my heart.  I don’t care if a book actually made it to market to sell, I’d just like to say I wrote something worthy of me self-publishing.

1,213 posts is a lot of writing.  It’s a lot of laying my heart open in a fairly open forum.  It’s a lot of freedom from getting things out of my head and on to “paper” or whatever medium this is best referred as.

1,213 posts.  I would never have guessed.

I’m thankful for the passion to write.

Grace and peace.
