Waxing Poetically’s Mission Statement
Hi all! The past few days, I’ve been quite inspired by certain anonymous friends, family and aquentences’ belief in distinct calling or a vocation as the religious say. So I thought about what I thought my vocation is.
I’ve had a few things happen to me or those around me that have caused me to take full stock of what my mission might be. From slightly high blood pressure to a a 20 something family member’s battle with cancer, it all made me want to excel in all that I do. Many of you are aware of my deep faith through this blog. It’s that faith that has made me ask myself questions about my what my life really hold for me. Last year, after coming out of college and dabbling in sales and marketing. I felt that full, unrelenting and unmitigated calling to writing full time — And in one year I’ve gotten some of my dream writing jobs. I’m not hugely rich as of yet, but I have hope and I thank each of you for your support!
With that said, I do have a point in all this. Waxing Poetically is my personal effort to keep the online community intellectually informed and cognizant of the world around us in a way they’ve not been allowed my mainstream media — from analyzing the merits and missteps of stem cell to exposing the simple teaching on and range of religious traditions, or exposing the unheard voice of political independents, at the end of the day I just hope that my readers think about how thy really feel on any issue. I also, ask that if you like what you read that you Stumbleupon, Digg or share this blog as well as Art from the Outskirts with as many people as you can!
Thank you to you all! Keep waxin’!
Stumble It!
