THIS IS WHERE I RECORD MY HOPES, DREAMS & DISCOVERIES
I started carving a special journal for each of my six children. This is called “fiddle-back” maple and is such a georgeous piece of wood. I left most of the irregular normal defects in the wood and then sectioned the entire piece with a bandsaw.
Then I carved this set of leaves and my stylized signature in the cover and hand rubbed the finish. It is without a doubt one of the greatest things in my life t0 just even touch the surface now. And almost everyone I show it to reacts with as much enthusiasm as me.
Can you imgaine how it will be in the lives of my children, when I am gone. And that is the whole idea.
I am a major determined “journaler” and have pursued this line of tracking my life for now forty years. The “benefits” so far out weigh the cost in time and energy, so while this effort is going to be a sorting out of my general journal (which is massive after all these years) the whole idea was to pull the BEST OF THE BEST of my ideas, the concepts, and the threads of interest that I have attempted to do throughout my life. I am “sorting this out for my children” but I hope that the general pattern of what I am writing and doing for me and my family, will open up a huge door of opportunity and potential for you. The toughest thing in the world to accomplish is to “discover” what you should be doing with your life – and I think “journals” are a DREAMERS TOOLBOX TOOL – that works extremely well – if you do.
So…
as you wade into this part of my personal “doing” I will promise you one thing. There will be some serious uniquiness focused here, and I will work hard to make it worth your time to come and visit with me – in hopes that you find a “…way to go for yourself.”
THEN – AND ONLY THEN – I THINK OUR TRADE WILL BE A GOOD TRADE. I will be here often and this is a tool that I think helps me personally more than anything else that I do. So, if you think this might be a long term benefit to enjoy yourself (and you will leave your comments) I will try to share with you my best in an effort to help you with your own “hopes and dreams.” The mixture of “like-minded” folks has been a powerful tool in my life for many years.
