Welcome to my blog.
My name is Travis and I’d like to welcome you to my small contribution to the world. I am getting closer to my midlife crisis than I’d like and I am a Caucasian male. I grew up in a rural Mississippi town. I attended a Southern Baptist church until I went to college. I now currently attend a Presbyterian church. I currently live in Alabama (USA). I am married and have two dogs. (Hello Evey and Harper.) I share this information because I want to give you a better understanding of my background and history.
It seems that everyone has a blog these days. These blogs encompass everything from the different types of alphabet soup to the governmental affairs of Zimbabwe. The purpose of this blog is to give me the opportunity to share my political, religious and other beliefs to those outside my circle of friends. I am at the point where I feel my single vote isn’t loud enough in this noise filled world. I am tired of being a part of the silent majority. I hope to express my views in a manner that is both clear and constructive. I don’t believe I have all the answers to many of today’s questions or challenges. The goal of this blog is to voice my opinion and ask for feedback. If I am wrong, feel free to share why you feel that way. All I ask is, along with your opinions, that you bring facts to the discussion. I will do my best to do the same.
Some blogs are updated daily, while others are left stagnant for months. This blog will probably be somewhere in the middle. The more you become involved, the more active this site will be.
One last thing: Please keep the conversation civil. Due to spammers, I will filter comments. If I deem a comment as inappropriate or non-constructive, I will not post them. I doubt this will even be a problem, but I felt it only fair to be transparent about my commenting policy.
Thanks for reading. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to share my views and beliefs. I look forward to hearing what you have to say.
Travis
