Still Life- Look Closer



Hello! hi, konbanwa, and greetings, 


Welcome one and all ( even though it will be closer to one ) to my blog Burks Designed! 
I wanted to do a blog, as a way to help me remember everything that happens in my journey through life, at least for a while. I kinda want this to be a journal, but at the same time I would like to try and connect with more people through this as well :) 

I know I am not a great writer, or very good with words in general. I hope that if you read this blog, you may be able to get something out of it, despite me being the one to write it.

As I was working today at my part time job, I was trying to think of a cool single word to name this blog. I was thinking through a few different ideas like: Thought, Photo, Deeper, and then I got to Difference ( obviously you can see that I chose something else. ) and as I thought on that word, I had a thought.

"The Answer to a subtraction problem is called a difference. Differences can be positive or negative, depending on what is put into the equation." ( Bear with me, this is not a math thing. )
"What can I take away from my day, that I can use to make a difference? The difference can be to anything. It could apply to me, to how I see thing, to how I experience life, or just to make me happier."

Oh! I just had an additional idea to that. if there is an equation that we can take something from to make a difference, maybe we can add something to the equation first to make the difference greater! 
This just to say; everyday we are alive, we can take something that we saw, heard, or did from that day. We can use our experiences, even if they are not as grand as a character from a movie or a book, we can use those on purpose to make a difference in our life, or in someone else's.

If we take time to just think on life, and what we have been given, it is amazing. You live on a huge planet! there is so much out there to see! life is an awesome gift, and we can be thankful for that, and look to use it in great ways.

( Do I use parenthesis too much? )
Thank you for reading, and I would love to hear what you can find today to take, and keep through your life.

  2. Blessings...to be counted daily, this come to my mind often too. Striving to be a better person than I was yesterday does too. I find myself growing closer and closer to me. It's amazing, I can relate so we'll with myself, I even find myself humorous. The best part about becoming closer to me.. is that each day I grow closer to God. Each day I praise him, and glorify that Jesus Christ is my saviour. Oh... and I use dots... too much. So maybe this type of thing is hereditary. Love this...nice job! Your cuz** silentg
