The Necessary Introductions

Hello!
I see you have made your way over to my blog. In the future, it will probably involve a lot of moral dilemmas, books, lists, and jellyfish. However, before we get started, I had better let you know a few things about me that will likely shape what I choose to write about:
1. I believe that all people deserve equal rights.
2.  I have attended an unprogrammed Quaker meeting (Meeting is an unprogrammed Quaker worship service.) since I was four. Basically this means that:
  • I haven't grown up with a handy creed I can whip out to tell you what I believe.*
  • If I choose to go into meeting instead of First Day School (Quaker youth's version of Sunday school/Jewish school/whatever else), I will end up sitting silently in a room emptying my mind and waiting for the Spirit to speak to me.
  • I have to grapple with religious truth without too much of a guidebook.
3. In case you haven't noticed from #2, I think religion is pretty interesting.
4. I love to read...probably a little too much.
5. I spend an excess of time drawing jellyfish. Recently, I started using Paint.net to draw jellyfish. Therefore, you might be subjected to an awful lot of my creations, which will likely make you roll your eyes.


(Sorry, I couldn't resist the temptation.)

Let me know in the comments if there is anything you would particularly like to see on this blog in the future. Have an excellent day!

*NOTE: By this statement, I do not mean to say that religion comes easily to those with a religious creed. I simply mean to point out that I don't have one.
