zaklog@yahoo.comTo quote Switchfoot, "I'm an already-but-not-yet, resurrected, fallen man."
Life tends to be messy, and doesn't always go the way you like. But, to quote G.K. Chesterton, "An adventure is only an inconvenience, rightly considered; an inconvenience is only an adventure, wrongly considered."
Finally, to quote Ralph Waldo Emerson, "I hate quotations. Tell me what you think."
I'm a Christian. This means I'm the scum of the earth which is somehow being miraculously transformed into the glory of the universe. Don't ask me to explain it. I don't know how it works either.
My life by analogy: I feel as if I'm trying to make a trip the whole way across America. But all the signs have been changed into a foreign language and the only map I have is of Lichtenstein. The other drivers all look like they know where they're going, but occasionally I suspect it's just a front. (And who sold me this map of Lichtenstein?!?!?)
This isn't finished yet, but I've got to think for a while more before I add anything else.
Earlier titles for my Journal include:
We Apologize for the Inconvenience: The Adventures of Zaklog the Great
The Hitchhiker's Guide to Eternity: It's the Eleventh Hour. Do you know where your towel is?
Life in the Last Fane: This train's about to leave. Get on board quick.
Contemplating the Taste of My Own Foot: Hmmm, I think it needs a grain of salt.
