It's been a while since I've written any sort of Blog. Probably a few years, although at this point I can't be sure. In any event it was long enough that when I logged into Xanga to look into writing s new entry I was shocked to discover that the old Xanga had gone and the new Xanga required me to purchase a subscription to keep posting. They kindly allowed me to download a copy of my old posts and perhaps some time I'll be able to upload them and see how long it has been. But for now I'll just say it has been a while.
So as I faced that prospect this morning I had the opportunity to think about what I've offered in the past in terms of content and what I want to offer in the future. What can I bring that is unique, that encapsulates my own perspective, that makes this just a bit different from everything else out there? What sort of content will my musings have?
In the past my reflections have revolved around my life: the medicine that I do, the music that I love, my faith, my family. And I think it is safe to say that they will continue to do that. But I'd like to frame those thoughts, as I can, on a pair of themes that I notice have been recurring in my life of late: Truth (Veritas) and Beauty (Splendor). I also hope to illustrate, through the lense of my own life and perspective, how each of these leads us to the other.
I have no idea how many people will actually read this, but I hope that each person who does will come away with a little more appreciation for the Truth and Beauty that surround us.
