I’ve been reading A Year With Thomas Merton over the past month or so and find his journal thoughts fascinating. From time to time I’ve pondered jotting down few daily thoughts of my own, but then in this busy life, such quiet moments of writing seem to pass away quickly. Maybe it’s because I’ve tried to make it all too much of a brain surgery moment.

With that in mind, I thought I’d try this again, and maybe along the way, encourage a few others in this journey we call life.

Tonight I’ve been pondering the word relationships. So often the concept of relationship and networking revolves around not encouraging one another, but how can we use one another. What an outdated concept of networking and relationship. I believe true networking and relationship occurs when we come together to encourage one another, and help one another along in life.
