Beginnings

I've thought about starting a blog for a long time.  But, you know how it is...life gets in the way, work gets in the way.....so tonight I decide to just "Do It"!  Nike's trademark words come tumbling out of my keyboard.  It takes a split second to realize what's going on and I smile.  Nike, the Greek Goddess of Victory, the bringer of success, the winged one encouraging me to fly, sail, soar to new heights.  In the Hymns Of Orpheus there is a hymn to dear Nike: "Come, mighty Goddess, and thy suppliant bless, with sparkling eyes, elated with success; may deeds illustrious thy protection claim, and find, led on by thee, immortal fame."
Well, I'm not expecting immortal fame, and I'm not real sure if any of my deeds could be labeled "illustrious", but with Nike giving me this first push I know I'd better fasten my seatbelt...I'm in for one heckava ride!
