31 Days to Becoming an Abolitionist {Late Day 9} My Disclaimer

I didn’t actually post on Day 9 and that really disappointed me.  I’m not sure if I was just too tired (my oldest daughter’s been sick – we just found out it's pneumonia) or too confused about what I was trying to accomplish and where this was going. 

So, now I’m using the Day 9 spot for a disclaimer and explanation.

When I began this blog I had a path in mind.  A path that would mirror the path I had taken; that would allow us to learn together and slowly unfold the truth with a lot of statistics and documented information.   It was orderly and started with the basic facts, building a foundation and then moving into more difficult subjects.

However, when I actually sit down to write – something entirely different comes out.  I’m not sure if that’s because

a.  I’m really disorganized in my thoughts,

b.  I’m too impatient to get to the underlying issues that eventually won first place in my heart, or

c.  It’s what I am actually supposed to be writing about.

I’m going to have to go with C. It’s what I am actually supposed to be writing about, simply because I cannot seem to force myself to stay on the path.   And if I believe it’s A. or B., my life-long disease (read: perfectionism) will kick in, force me to go crazy and never write another word.  That would make me sad.

So, thank you for your grace, if you’re reading this.  I hope it doesn’t become too confusing and I hope that you take away something, anything useful from the hodge-podge of information I’m putting out there. 

Things will be in a random order and maybe we can sort it all out later.  If there is something in particular you are interested in learning more about, please, please, please let me know in the comments or send me an e-mail – I’d be super-happy to do the research and tell you everything I know and everything I find.

Thanks for reading!
