Each day is new day. A day to start over, or continue where you left off. Today, I decided to start something new; I would write my own blog. This is old to a lot of people but very new to me. I am not an author, so forgive the grammatical mistakes or the boring topics.
The thought to do this came to me while teaching a bible class at church. I was telling some stories about conversations or experiences I have had while teaching and coaching. So, I thought I would start to journal some of them and sharing them with other people. I was recently at a basketball clinic in Pittsburgh, PA where I heard Coach Don Meyer speak and he spoke about giving your gift away. So, I thought by writing a blog on various experiences teaching and coaching I could pass on the blessings I have received, the lessons learned, and the moments that have helped define who I am.
Well I am going to try and see how it goes, and at least I can say I tried and mark it off my bucket list-write my own blog. That reminds me of one of my favorite sayings: There are two pains in life- pain of discipline or the pain or regret-which do you choose? (Some of you reading this might actually say there are three pains in life- one being reading this blog)
I hope you enjoy.
The first step in a masterpiece.
