Certain Soldier
Everyone has a knack for something, for finding things, for tripping over one's shoelaces. I have a knack for applying odd titles to things, hence Certain Soldier. Inspired by Oriah's Invitation to embracing life in the fullest, and Jonah Goldberg's column on the war on certainty having beaten me to the punch in publishing some of my own thoughts, I have decided to join the war effort - a soldier, a minor player for now, but a cause worth fighting for. Not faith, but hopefully a little sanity.
Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplacable spark. In the hopeless swamps of the not quite, the not yet, and the not at all, do not let the hero in your soul perish and leave only frustration for the life you deserved, but never have been able to reach. The world you desire can be won, it exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.
