Hello Bloggers.

For those of you that aren't aware (which will probably be most of you...) I'm not terribly computer savvy. I'm pretty computer deficient, actually. But I absolutely love writing, so under the influence of a massive amount of caffeine, I have decided to begin a blog. Bear with me as I endeavor to put the hundreds of random thoughts in my head into a comprehensive statement.


I suppose this first blog should be a "Oh hey! Nice to meet you!" sort of thing. I'm not usually good at small talk, but I consider myself to be a fairly detail-oriented person and I love getting to know people... So now I guess I'll introduce myself. I will attempt to keep each of these under five sentences, because I am the sort of person that can literally talk to a wall for hours about nothing, so I need to set limits for myself or you all may very well stop reading this blog before I'm even into the official introduction and that would be absolutely dreadful. So.


1) My name is Lyndsi. My middle name is Britt. I hated my middle name for the majority of my life, and it wasn't until recently that I decided to get over it. Britt is a very unusual middle name and it really suits me quite well. So mommy dearest, if you're reading this: Good job.


2) I became a Christian on February 2nd of 2011. I basically reasoned my way to God, and Jesus quickly followed. On that day I found a peace and freedom that I wish every human being on the planet could experience, and I thank God for it each and every day of my life.


3) Despite the strength of #2, my biggest battle in life is constant, unrelenting doubt. I wake up with doubt, I go to sleep with doubt, and I think and wonder and dream about it incessantly. Only time (and the Lord Almighty) will tell whether this a strength or weakness. Maybe a bit of both?


4) I am fascinated with anything and everything related to the Asian continent. People, politics, culture, FOOD, fashion, music... It's all beautifully fascinating and interesting to me. Someday I will go there. And I will LOVE IT.


5) I have a best friend; (Two of them, actually. But the other one simply cannot be described in less than five sentences, so we'll address him at a later date.) her name is Jia and she has taught me more about life than any textbook or self-help book ever could. And she's Asian- always a plus. [Her name is pronounced "jaw", for future reference.]


I'm all about the self-reflection. I believe the ability to look at one's actions and draw conclusions about life based on those actions is a great strength for anyone that simply cannot be stressed enough. A little self-reflection never hurt anyone, and most of this blog will revolve around the happenings of my life and the little lifelong themes that God puts on my heart about those happenings. So if the title of my blog doesn't intrigue you in the slightest... yeah, probably not the best way to be spending your time.


Sorry if that last sentence was a tad terse... I just don't want anyone to be disappointed. Yet another of my weaknesses. (strengths?)


Any sort of comment is gladly appreciated!
