Believe it or not, this has been a long time coming. The idea of starting a blog has surfaced in my mind many a time but until now I never actually started one. The reasons being that I didn't think it would be something people would want to read and I just didn't take the time to set one up. But I have decided to start one now. Now, because I have decided that I do not mind if anyone reads this or not, of course I am glad that you are reading it, but even if you weren't, I would still happily write away simply because it's a great outlet for me. A place to let my thoughts, ideas, and ramblings flow to my heart's content. And better than that, it is a place for me to share things that I find interesting or touching or just worthy of sharing with you. At least, that's what I have in mind for this blog.
Starting the blog was no easy task, the first bump in the road was figuring out what to call it. You see, naming a blog is not as easy as you might think, it has to be clever and meaningful. After quite a while of debating various options I settled for Reflections of the Light. What do you think? Pretty good, right? I chose it for the two meanings that are in that title. The first is that this is a blog of my reflections (or thoughts) of things in life, and because I do not plan on going too far into depth or discussing particularly heavy topics they are reflections of the light(er topics). Secondly, as a Christian I believe that we are the children of God and I believe that He is the Light of the world. As His children we ought to reflect this light in our daily lives. And so this blog will also touch on how I am trying to be a Reflection of the Light. So much for not having heavy topics, eh?
So there you have it; my first ever blog and my first ever post. Done.
