Garbage or Treasure?



Garbage or Treasure

A jar of pickles sits in my fridge.

Would I dare to touch it? Heck no.

There are only two foods I don't like, pickles and olives.

If every pickle and olive on the face of the planet disappeared today, I wouldn't miss them at all.

Now ask my wife the same question and she may cry herself to sleep the night they disappear.

I wouldn't go so far to say that worth is completely in the eye of the beholder.

Pickles are worth the same no matter who is looking at them.

However they are worth nothing to me.

"Worth" to each person is decided in each person's own way.

While reading the Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin,

She started her own blog and I decided to challenge myself to start a blog.

What would I share?

Do I have anything worth sharing?

There's the worth question again.

Attending my writing class, my professor drilled into me that everyone has a story to tell.

I decided whether or not this blog reaches worldwide audiences,

whether or not anybody but myself (and hopefully my wife) takes the time to read it

I was going to put my thoughts and life impressions out there!

Who knows, maybe when my grandkids want to know something about their grandpa they'll have all of my thoughts on here.

With that, I decided to start it.

Now it is up to you to decide for yourself whether or not this blog is worth YOUR time.

I like it, but I can see how you think i'm biased.

So what do you think?

Is it "Garbage or Treasure"?
