My wife tells me that I'm her favorite blogger. She says this because she knows that I like words of affirmation but also because she knows that I enjoy to write. If anyone can get me to blog, it's her. But, as of late, my blog has been a casualty of a perfectly imbalanced life.
Balance is tough. A kid. A wife. A job. A community. A house that is getting beat into submission by a brutal winter. Graduate school. Taxes. Sick family members. Sick selves.
Exercise. Time for reflection. Time for study. Time for being. Time at church. Time at home. I can never seem to balance it all very well. Through the process of elimination and by prioritizing what I find valuable, I'm hoping to have a much better and more balanced year than I did last year. When my life is balanced I feel better. I speak better. I speak better of others. I am not nearly as tired. People don't get on my nerves. I don't tend to get on other people's nerves (as much). It's so vitally important to me.
So, hopefully I can get the dust off this blog and return to normalcy.

Welcome back, Champ! I'm with you on the balance thing. I think I'm tipping over.
Welcome back my friend. If you figure out the balance issue, could you give me the inside scoop? Please?!
Hello Mr. Loucks,
You made your site so simple yet elegant. I see that you are a student. I used to be one myself!
I like to write articles about Jehovah God on my site so that people can find out what His imminent plans are for us: 2 "I opened my arms to my own people all day long, but they have rebelled. They follow their own evil paths and thoughts. (Isaiah 65:2) (NIV)
