Some days the ink overflows from the pen, other days, it dries up.
Some days the words write themselves, other days, the pen carves into the page searching for words.
Some days I love what I write, and feel an urge to share widely, other days, I edit mercilessly and feel the urge to hide my craft.
Whatever the day brings, I write.

What do you want?
Luke 18:35 – 43
As he drew near to Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging; and hearing a multitude going by, he inquired what this meant. They told him, “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.” And he cried, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” And those who were in front rebuked him, telling him to be silent; but he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” And Jesus stopped, and commanded him to be brought to him; and when he came near, he asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?” He said, “Lord, let me receive my sight.” And Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight; your faith has made you well.” And immediately he received his sight and followed him, glorifying God; and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.
Homily:
People provide the greatest test to what you want.
They are a filter that holds back the mediocre and lets only those that can break through the resistance of judgment to pass through.
They celebrate those that break through, and crush those they hold back into more filter material.
What do you want?
Go for it.
