Taking the plunge

"Do you have a blog?" my friend Courtney asked the other day.
"Do you have experience monitoring a blog?" a potential employer inquired.
"How's your online presence? Do you have a personal blog?" a mentor wondered aloud.
"Do you write and publish your thoughts often?" an author of an advice article posed.
"Do you keep a journal?" someone asked at church.

The answer to all of the above: NO!

I'm sick of saying, "No," so here it is. My very own blog. Yes, Abram is blogging.

Now everyone has a different concept of what a blog is to be used for. Some use it to showcase their "cute" babies and family happenings.



Others use it for business.



And some people use it to promote a cause.



Even though I'm not married, don't own a business, and am not promoting a cause, I still have something to write about: LIFE.

I hope you enjoy my debut in the blogosphere, what I think is an important part of our social media landscape. Stay tuned for random thoughts, social commentary and maybe some fun. I promise I won't post any more ugly baby pictures. At least for a while.
