Dear Son, to me, blogging’s hidden blessing is its love for the writer.

The cool blessing with blogging is that blogging has no expectation.

If you write only one blog post in your life, fine.

If you create a website and add a blogging software, but never write a single post, blogging says, “no problem”.

And if you write more personal blog posts than anyone in the world ever has, blogging says, “Oh, I never noticed”.

i love the infinite blessings of leaving a trail for you, Son.

In the big picture i will die with peace, with zero regrets on what i might have said.

The longer, in time, i write, the more my priorities speak to me.

i love iPhones

i love iPhones.

To me, having an iPhone makes life infinitely more effective and efficient.

Humanity made a giant leap forward with iPhone in the same way as fire, the spear, bows and arrows, shoes, printing press, agriculture, industrialization, trains, cars, planes, radio, TV, and hundreds of other effective and efficient transformations.

Thank you iPhone. And when we say thanks iPhone, we are simultaneously thanking the Internet. Without the Internet, the iPhone is handy, but not transformational.

i love reading what i write

Reading what you write is similar to taking iPhone photos.

By looking at your camera roll, you can easily re-read the image you saw and were compelled to photograph.

Motives and outcomes from looking at (re-reading) your camera roll are (probably) infinite. And yet whatever our motive is, re-reading the photo delivers on our motive.

This is what blogging (modern writing) delivers for me. Daily. Never gets old.

Writing can change you.

Anything can change you.

You know this.

So do i.

So i keep writing.

And changing.
