Birth

I came, all fresh and bounteous, ready to run my course and make a mark.

I came, accompanied by joy and promise, regardless of the manner or wont.

I came, you looked at me and saw me, not sure, much awed, understand?

I came.

Dear one, how precious you are!

Long we awaited your arrival,

And now you have come.

We can't help but rejoice at your coming.

I've come. I'm ready. Let's do this, but how?

You have misgivings? I have some too.

Let's not be scared.

A lot can happen, a lot will happen.

This is my journey as much as it is yours.

Find a place for me in your hearts that will remain when the novelty has worn.

Look at me and see me, try to understand.

INTRODUCTION

Tuesday September 27 2016.

Hi y'all. This is #Conversations, a journal of the things I observe around me. I write as I think (or feel sometimes) about ideas and concepts that I encounter in my daily life. In other words this is my version of reality as I see it, hear it or perceive it; it may not always be in line with your point of view but it will set you thinking about what you think and why, and what, why and how I think. The purpose of #Conversations is to make us all think and when we're done thinking, take practical steps about the things we have thought. I have found that thinking people sometimes do not think as well, so when you think and are stuck, start a conversation of your own. Illumination comes swiftly.

Please look forward to #SalientMatters on Tuesdays and #UnChurched on Thursdays here. In #SalientMatters I will be writing about things that I find weighty and or interesting. There's a wide range of topics to choose from so allow me to surprise you. In #UnChurched, I will be writing on Christian issues. You may not understand what I mean by that but you'll be sure to find out soon.

DISCLAIMER: I may not be an authority on all the subjects I'll write about so feel free to question or correct my line of thinking if you think or see differently. But if you share my views, please let me know that my thoughts are corroborated by your perspective. This will prove to me that someone is thinking on the same things I'm thinking about.

On Twitter I am @durotitrena

Or send me a mail at ifedurotimi@gmail.com

Let us all share knowledge.

OPENING MESSAGE

Hello and welcome.
My name is 'durotimi.
I'm different in that I fit nicely into a mold that is neither square nor round. My perspective makes me who I am. How are you defined?
