Rants, Ramblings and Revalations

The joy of a first post. The anticipation of those crisp fresh words spilling out onto the page like fresh rain drops on a hot summers day. So you may be asking yourself what exactly will Shed Tales actually be about, and hopefully the title of this first post may help solve that.

 This blog aims to be a little bit about this, a bit about that and sometimes a dollop of something else. There will be good times, humor happiness and joy and I'm sure there will be times when there will be sadness and unhappiness. 

So why Shed Tales?

 I'm so glad you asked that. Eventually Shed Tales will be written from my shed studio, while I work on the many projects buzzing around inside my head. At the moment it sits on the drawing table of my mind not quite able to take the steps it wants to to come into creation, but I have learnt over recent times that with many things in life, while it is important to strive for success and to have a determination, there are also times when we must step back and look at the larger picture. This may not be the time to do that particular task, it may be time to rethink the task, it may be time to remove that task completely.

So who are you?

 Me, oh I am many things to many people. First and foremost I am a unique human, I am a Husband, a father, a son, a grandson, a friend, a work colleague, a customer, a passerby on the street. I am a film fan, a lover of reading, an IT Technician, a Amateur Radio HAM, a student of all things, a Christian.

 Everyone is something and someone to somebody, and for most they will read through my list and nod and agree with many of the things we are to others. There may be some who read the word Christian and think "oh great a religious nut" Fear not my new bloggy friends, while my faith will come into the posts I write on occasional's I am not here to convert the masses, or look down on you. This blog is about love, peace, happiness, contentment and most of all fulfillment. The doors of this blog are firmly open and will I hope always be open to anyone wishing to enter, to read, to discuss, to ask questions. I may not be the answer to your questions, but I have the ears and the open mind to listen to all who ask.

Why a blog?

 I know for an opening blog this is turning into quite a long post, but stick with me people. I've been looking at blogging for the past few years but somehow it always looked like I had nothing to say. I suppose partly because that was the truth. So have I suddenly had a revelation about what to write? Well not exactly no, but I have realized that the topics to talk about are all around us, in life itself. The experiences we feel, the things we do, the people we meet.

For an opening post that took more time than I expected :) but I'm hoping not to have scared anyone away just yet. Im looking forward to taking who ever reads and follows this blog on a journey through life itself. The road may sometimes be bumpy but if you keep your hands and feet inside the car as all times, it should be a safe trip :)

Thank you all for taking the time out of your precious day to read my opening ramblings, and I'm already in the process of thinking up my next post.

Enjoy
