I reserve the right to define me.

When I write. I’m doing primarily one thing. Telling people why it’s so nice to be alive. And conscious.  A thinking being. Really, that’s what this blog is all about.  Counting the ways that make me feel good. Even when I’m critical. About things. About politics. About world events. It all adds up. To a declaration of love for life. I’m telling the creator. That this is an expression of my gratitude. I reject organized religions. Or anything or anyone that tries to define me. I reserve the right to define myself. –Jim Broede
