Much posting going on today. Check out this quote:
We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey. – Kenji Miyazawa, poet
This, by all appearances, is a pretty cool quote. I like the possibilities of this statement. I like the direction. I found the quote in, of all places, a Golf.com article on Tiger Woods written by John Garrity. Cool. I will try to hunt the whole poem down and add it here. I’ll probably add the poet to my vast Amazon wishlist (hopefully there will be reading time in Heaven).
SIDE NOTE: I don’t know if anybody ever wonders about the amount of writing that goes on here. I sometimes wonder where I find the time. The reality though is that I am a nerd and I am usually near a computer (we’ve got three at home). Between the laptop and the handheld I am virtually always able to write a thought or discovery down. A typical post usually takes me between 2-4 minutes to enter.
I have always admired those who have developed the discipline of journaling. I have tried several times in my life to keep a journal and all have failed. This – is my journal. I don’t have to haul it around with me and worry about losing it or having my pen run out of ink or laboriously handwriting all of my thoughts (the ones I remember) – I simply have to log on and tap out the post and move on.
