Some times I just need a push. . .

Lets be honest. There are at most three people who will read this, and i am completely fine with that. I know i don't really have anything to offer to the general public as far as good writing or useful knowledge. I might occasionally find something humorous or whatever. I have, for no particular reason, been negligent with my blog. I guess you could say that i felt like there wasn't really a point. Nothing to say and no body to read it. Now that has a changed.

It was a Thursday night. My wife and i had just finished dinner with some friends. We were making our way out the car via a slow walk with lots of talk. We weren't talking about anything specific and i brought up a mutual acquaintance's blog. I just asked if it was being updated and if there was anything good on it. My question was answered. Nothing out of the ordinary, yes he still writes, blah blah. What followed the answer was what caught me off guard. I was imediatly attacked with what i can only parallel with the firing of a verbal BAZOOKA. She comes at me with "What about Random Goat?" then the second barrage comes from him "Yeah i subscribe but i don't ever see any updates!"

Now every one who reads this should know that these friends that i speak of are really more than friends. They are what i would consider best friends. They may not realize how much they have enriched the lives of me and my wife. Their opinion matters. Thier support of my ideas matter. Their genuine intrest in my life matters. Most of all it is the trust that i have in them, that our friendship goes way beyond the surface, that matters.

It didn't really occur to me until i got home just how much i needed that push/verbal abuse. I had been going back and forth in my head about trying to blog more, or not. When i got home i realized that my friends didn't care if i was dropping life changing nuggets. My friends don't care if i have anything important to say. My friends just want to hear what i have to say regardless of content. When i realized that, i realized that those friend are true friends. Because of them i have decided to give this thing another try.

Also to the two that pushed me i say thank you.You two realy mean more to me and my wife than you will ever know.
