  • A New Beginning

    Welcome to the first on-line installment of Paul's journal.  When I was young I started journalling as an outlet.  My secret hope (not so secret in the years since) was that someday my journals would be published for the world to read.  It's a rather self-centred desire, but the fact that these weblogs have been on the Internet for years would seem to indicate that it is not a unique desire.  I've always intended to get a weblog since I first discovered the concept from my ex-foster mother Kathi (not to be confused with my biological mother Kathy, whom I will always refer to as Mom) several years ago. 

    Because I don't have time for two journals, don't expect me to lie or pull punches here.  If you're offended by my honesty, this is the only time I will appologize.  I believe that Truth is intregral to a healthy life.  No Good can come from the suppression of Truth. 

    I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank the Lord my God for my life, health, and opportunities.  Without Him, this weblog would not be possible.

    Peace and God Bless!

    Paul Donald Peter Tanton
