After
posting the article about the
cross, I noticed the counter (on the admin screen of the blog) indicated I
had posted 99 articles. So this makes number 100 and I thought it would be a
good time for some reflection. The first two articles (in December of 2010) were
commentaries on scripture and beliefs of atheists. The next 3 articles covered smartphones,
a health topic and inter-personal relationships. At the time, I really hadn't decided
any particular focus for this blog. Now, after nearly 3 years, I've tended to
gravitate toward scriptural commentary because I find it so mentally
invigorating. Here’s the stats:
63
articles regarding scripture and religious topics
20
articles regarding science and technology
12
articles regarding miscellaneous subjects
5
articles that are not listed on my index
list.
There
seems to be at least 50 some-odd people following this blog (according the
admin pages) although I only have two members as of August 2013. But I didn't
start this to amass a readership. My whole drive was to keep up my writing
skills and hopefully be of help to some that are really looking to make sense
of God and the Bible. I've strived to use both common sense and reasonableness
in my thought development. The closest thing I’ve gotten to a compliment on
this blog is that I present interesting “stories.” Well, at least they’re not
boring, (or maybe the commenter was just being kind with the word “interesting”).
Personal friends that have read selected articles have indicated they were
well-written and I truly do appreciate those expressions of appreciation.
So
what is next? If you notice the chronological sidebar on the right, I've not
set any regularity of a posting schedule. At present, I do not have any
research projects planned and the articles based on my experiences are only
written after I contemplate how to present it in an interesting way. Except for
the young man at the bagel shop, which happened in mid July 2013, nothing
notable has happened since then.
