So.....it's been a while, yeah? Almost one year, to be exact.
I've been mulling over what I want to write for a while now. Almost one year, to be exact...
I've been thinking and reading other blogs, and considering what I want to be writing about. I've been thinking about my passion, and my education, and my goals. I've been thinking about where I go from here. In my life, not just my blog.
I love domestic things. I love reading blogs about couponing, and creating home management binders, and saving money, and sticking to a cleaning schedule, and cooking things.
I also love working, and feminism, and social justice, and discussions about poverty and politics and health and psychology.
And I really love theology and talking about who Jesus was and is, and how He operates. I love the controversial conversation that's happening in regard to the American church and Western Christianity.
And......good luck finding all of those things in one place. Which is ok, except for the fact that they all seem to be SO separated from each other! I can find a jillion blogs on home management. And I LOVE them. But a lot of times we don't speak the same language. I don't have kids, I'm not a homeschooler, I work full time, and I don't have nearly enough time to clean my house. And I can find great blogs on feminism and religion and theology and social justice. But I also want to talk about baking and organizing and I don't want to skip over those things. So, yeah, I get it....all blogs and books and articles can't be about all things and all interests.
BUT.
How about when all those genres aren't really respecting each other? What about when you have to choose between domesticity and theology? That's pretty uncool.
So, I guess this is my space to blend my interests. Because I get it- I get both "sides," of things.....I just don't like that there are sides. I'd rather have some solidarity.
I thought about changing the name of my blog, but I love it. I think our Proverbs 31 gal does blend a whole lot of things together- Jesus, feminism, business, working moms, domesticity, organization, money management. I like that about her. So I think she can stay. :)
