part violet part ham

this blogging thing is a trip.

it's kinda risky letting folks inside your head but it's kinda cool to share your thoughts with them too.

being the kind of person who could never even commit to a bumper sticker, for fear of offending someone,
it really has been liberating and inspiring.
i guess, even though i like to stay home because i'm somewhat of a shrinking (yeah i wish) violet, i am also a hAm.

btw- i have a bumper sticker now. it says KEEP ODELL WEIRD. that's the little rural town we live in.

my friend cindy thinks i'm an exibitionist.

in a sense, this is true.

i can sing in front of crowds, but i can't talk to them.

i can paint paintings and hang them in shows and galleries, but i can't explain them.

i don't wear sexy or flamboyant clothing, but i do wear odd baggy clothing. and very old coats.

i am exactly the same as i was in highschool!

i love to make people laugh, but my face still turns beet red if i see someone i know in the grocery store!!!

what's up with that!!!?

oh well. it keeps me humble!

God made everyone with so many lovely facets to reflect Himself

to every different kind of person, if we only will.

the apostle Paul said he would be all things to all men.
to be salt and light.

isn't that a great goal for this little whisp of a life? to be next to someone and make them feel better about themselves, or valuable, or loved?

i wish i could do that  :)

anybody like a little violet with their ham?
