A blank page. With so much space and nothing to say. It is always fun to begin something but never end it… Hmmm… Something to ponder I guess. Well, being the first entry into any blog I will lay out the ground rules.

1) Do not expect pictures.

Mwhahahahaha! Sorry but I am not really a picture person. Just expect lots and lots and lots of words! But hopefully with enough skill to paint emotions and some pictures into your head. I will occasionally post things up just don’t expect this to be one of those picture blogs where every entry has a 5:1 ratio of pictures to words.

Eg:

Today was the

(5 pictures of happiness)

happiest

(5 pictures of days)

day of my

(Another 5 pictures for life)

life

----

Why?

Words invoke feeling passion create something that pictures can never fully describe or even fully encompass. The phrase that a picture paints a thousand words is interpreted in not too accurate a standing in the sense that a picture does paint a thousand words but it paints words you will never be able to read or read well for that matter (My personal opinion at any rate). And that in itself kills the purpose of the picture.

2) Do not expect profound sentences and thoughts/ideas in every phrase.

This is a blog. My blog. An ordinary 20 year old human’s blog… Not the Bible or a theologian’s diary. So…I try to keep it light (Pardon my language. It’s what I read. If you cannot even understand these words…Pray that the Father above will enlighten you.

But anyways…I just found out the other Friday at Youth Combine (church youth meeting) that I am a…

Know…it…all…

I wonder now if I should take that as a compliment or an insult. I can hear some of you mentally gasping right now. An insult? Is Danny mad? I would die just to have that title. Well… like it or not I seem to see the title as someone who knows everything but doesn’t really have a close circle of friends. Like…hey…I know it all but that’s the only thing you will ever know about me…

I wonder if it scares people. Maybe it’s the way I speak or the way I carry myself. Btw, I am NOT a know-it-all. I just happen to know more than you. Why? Because I read. Simple. Capish? (sp?) And also because I believe in what I speak. So you will realize (Those of you who have been with me long enough) that I can’t lie very well. [Orchestra brings out a loud brass piece] Yes…confession made… AND DONE WITH! Ok…moving on… ^^

Oh ya. One more thing. I am no language expert so feel free to comment on the spelling and bla bla bla. (sp?) means I’m not really sure of the spelling. Those with no sp’s mean I didn’t realize it.

3) I…can’t think of anything else at the moment. It’s like I burst with ideas before I write and when finally…finally I have the time to write…the amount that comes out barely seems consistent with what I was thinking through…earlier…

Hmmm…

If you wondered why I started this blog. Well…I felt that wherever I am or was, there are times I know the answer to a question, riddle, joke, phrase, things I could have added or thrown into a conversation if only I had opened my lead mouth. If you didn’t know, I am by nature a very shy person. [More powerful climatic music] Yes yes…shy…S-H-Y. I constantly have to force myself out of my comfort zone just to talk to people.

And did you know I enjoy thinking or time alone as well? Not that I enjoy solitude is just that I don’t mind it. And with the right group of people I just can’t stop talking. Who is the right group of people you ask? People who…I don’t know…can just…never mind… Best not bring this up.

But we are really going off the tangent here. In short, this blog is for all those times I could have spoken up or my thoughts for the day or for some time where I feel everyone else should know about. A place you can reach me if my email, Facebook, phone, presence just seems too unreachable. And a place I hope I can reach out to you as well. To truly express myself instead of clamming down and not saying anything…

Sigh…yes…I pray that God give me the strength to speak up but I don’t know…the times when that comes about I just…can’t seem to say anything and when I do…it comes out like German.

Nemo judex in causa sua. No man can be a judge for his own cause. So…feel free to post comments and put something in the shout box…once I put it up or find out how to that…and all the other strange features this blog thingies seem to have and respond. I would like to hear from you as well.

So yes…Thus ends the first post to the Ellipsis’ blog.
