day 0

I was asked by my pastor to participate in this kinda experiment.  He is writing a book on a concept called- rule of life.  its kinda hard to explain but here goes.  monks live in this state of rhythms that shape who they are and what they believe.  this experiment is trying to see if living in such an urban society, whether these rhythms can be accomplished.  i know i am not explaining this very well but basically- i am trying to find a few things in my life that i am trying to change or work towards improving- instead of a routine, its more about developing a rhythm in doing things so they are not forced or obligated, but being intentional in devoting time to a specific area of my life.  I figured the first blog worked out pretty well so i am going to use the blog world to journal through this 3 months experiment.  it is a lot easier to explain in person and if you are interested, please call me and we can talk about it, (sorry ken, I hope i am not butchering the concept)

ok so very simple, i have outline 4 areas of my life that i feel need some structure, some rhythm.  I have listed them from greatest importance to me, to least.  I am going to try and introduce them slowly into my life.  many of these things I am doing already but not with any kind of intentionality or consistency.  tomorrow will be day 1 and we will see how it goes.

Is this enough to make you curious?  Have I said a lot and also nothing?  Will you check back in tomorrow to see what the heck I am talking about.  I think I will leave it at that.  More tomorrow...later
