Carving a piece of joint intellectual property out of thin air isn't quite rewriting history but it has been challenging, rewarding, and entertaining (at least for the writers :)). We've juggled illnesses, vacations, and disasters. We've stared down writer's block and fretted over power outages when storms brewed and posts were due. Having a partner kept us faithful when we might have otherwise slacked off. We always knew at least ONE person would read what we posted and to be honest, although we let you in on it, that is who we are writing for. :)
Remember how we got here? Italy, Facebook, and Saving the World...
We've agreed, disagreed, rethought things, and nitpicked definitions and meanings. We've read online articles, newspapers, and books with the thought of whether or not it might be blog worthy in the back of our minds. On a couple of occasions we were fortunate enough to have real life face to face discussions. If you read our blog you can imagine how many more ideas we can turn over when a keyboard isn't involved.
"Conversation has no bottom line, it doesn't have to arrive anywhere, and more often than not it will lead to further discussion instead of resolution or answer...true conversation...turns ideas over and over, satisfying the soul with its nuances rather than extraordinary insights or explanations." ~ Thomas Moore
On this sparkling holiday one can't help but appreciate the freedom to say, write, think, discuss, and read whatever we like. In that way it seems the perfect day for us to be celebrating a place, and a public one at that, where we can do all those things and share them with each other and with you.
Thanks for reading!
Please join us for the second year of our pursuit of life, liberty and the pursuit of blogging happiness!
Happy Fourth of July!
