The Ramble: A shift in perspective

When I started this blog, I had a lot more to say than I do now. The premise was to write about the good things that shaped my opinion of Birmingham, Alabama. I also saw it as an easy way to show my friends just what there is around here. The message was one where it was focused on engaging people in the future of the city they’d chosen to live in and love and to let others see what it had to offer.

It has since become a common place for people to read about some of the things going on in the community and a place to learn of ways to become more active in the community. I find myself not taking too many chances, though I know that what I write are my thoughts and not things that would affect my jobs and my civic roles. Somehow I’ve tried to play it too safe recently and I haven’t necessarily done what I set out to do.
