One Small Step for Mankind, One Giant Leap for Me...

Upon being given the idea to start one of these things (blogs) by a very dear friend, I have decided a few instants ago to jump into it with some enthusiasm. As I have little background in writing, and even less in grammar, I am often hesitant to place anything that I create out there. I have tried my hand at keeping a diary of one sort or another, only to become uninterested when the speed of my hand fails to keep up with my stream of conscious. Among all academic disciplines spelling is also my weakest attribute also. By all that is holy and good in this world, I realized just now that "Blogger" has a spellcheck feature right above this text box. These shortcomings aside, the last bit of pessimism for now is that it is hardly believable that I shall like anything that I write down after the fact. The joy of art for me lies solely in the creation there of. Even as these words make themselves on the computer screen, I am thinking about a way that I could better say what I have to say. This may be true of anyone who chooses to devote themselves to a craft however. Perhaps everyone feels the same way.
