Changes

Since I last posted to my blog about 2 years ago, there have been a significant number of changes that have occurred in my life. I have started a new job with a new company and new client. I have moved from Northern Virginia to Northeast Ohio. I have made the acquaintance of a number of new friends and neighbors. And I have continued to watch my kids grow and change into bigger and more incredible little people.

As I've watched my life change, in big ways and small, I've become a little more in tune with how I feel about my own personal, religious, and political beliefs. A few years ago, I was more interested in the social and, for lack of a better term, "gossipy" aspects of politics. While Drudge and Wonkette have their place and can be an enjoyable source of news, I have become much more likely to review more serious, or I guess a "higher level" of blog discourse. The link I have recently added to Andrew Sullivan is one I use quite often as his book and blog have provided for me a better understanding of what I personally believe. While I continue to struggle to find my own unique beliefs and understanding of events, it has most certainly become more important to me how I can seriously (and more than likely in a very small way) have an impact and contribution to our political nation.
