SATURDAY'S BAG DAY

Last night I was going to read, but thought perhaps I should get to sleep because . . . at 8 am Bag Day started. Bag Days are usually great and I managed to scarf up a lot of knick-knacks to become part of my eclectic collection of potential Christmas tree ornaments. One ornament-to-be is still unidentified; it looks like a tin tea leaf dipper on steroids, which is to say it is a grapefruit-sized hollow tin with holes punched in it and hangs on a small chain with a hook. I think I need to post pictures . . .

Explorers used to go into unknown territory to see what was there; I am going into the realm of blogs to see what I can add, and, in writing posts about my life here in Northeast Indiana, to see what I can discover about myself and the place I live. Maybe this is not so much a new-fangled blog as it is an old-fashioned pot-bellied stove around which stories and news are exchanged and shared.

Yo, there. Okay, I don't exactly look like my picture here. I have written for some papers in different places and at present I am writing for the Kendallville Mall. You may have read some of my articles; you may not have. A lot of the time I write for myself, and sometimes I don't do it on paper. Sometimes I write in my mind where the words can soothe or encourage or firmly establish a feeling in my memory place. Would that be my heart? Maybe. Sometimes I write funny stuff; I think I am at times melancholy. I don't think of myself as a writer or storyteller. I believe I just have a need to attach words to things. Perhaps it is a way of praying , a need such as that expressed by C.S. Lewis in the movie Shadowlands:"That's not why I pray, Harry. I pray because I can't help myself. I pray because I'm helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time, waking and sleeping. It doesn't change God. It changes me."
