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!

Congratulations on your first post! The Xanga Community welcomes you. Good luck and happy weblogging!
hope you have fun with xanga and thanks again.
feel free to post comments on my journal anytime, even if it's just to tell me i cuss too much. 
Cuss too much? Bah! Your journal is your space, and my journal is mine. So long as we keep my journal clean, what's the difference?
BTW, thank you for introducing me to Xanga. I hope you don't live to regret it!
