Just FYI

I find myself wanting to write more. Which is a little strange, but every time I log in I stare at my last post and think, "Is there anything new to talk about?" I know that's one of the oldest and lamest excuses in the history of writing, but it truly affects me. I just don't know what to write about.

So instead I read. I read books, devotionals, pamphlets and other blogs, and you know what a lot of them say (when they're talking about writing)? Write what you know, tell your story. Well, that's good and all, but when it comes down to it, my life isn't terribly write-worthy. Heck, I don't talk about the majority of my day in my daily conversations. So what's there to write about?

I did all this thinking while brushing my teeth, and then I looked down at my new toothbrush. You know how the new ones have those ridges on the back of the brush so you can clean your tongue? I gave it a shot and almost threw up. Not a good thing with a mouth full of toothpaste. Sorry, Oral B, this is one tongue that is not going to be appropriately hygienic.

Its such a well intentioned invention, but it makes me gag. And that made me wonder, how many other well intentioned inventions disagree with people? For that matter, how many good foods, medicines, charities, churches, well intentioned ideas, words, converstations....


actually make people gag?
