Today is Friday, November 11, 2005. It is Veteran’s Day and four days before my first child, a son we will name Mason Lawerence, is due. My name is Micah Lawerence Caswell and I have been contemplating creating a blog for a couple of months. My car broke down this afternoon so I ended up with more time that I thought today so I thought, “go ahead set it up.” I feel like I am stepping into a whole new world.How should one begin a blog? I thought I would begin with telling the blogging world who I am. I have thought a lot about the question of who I am. Who is a person? Most give their resume, and I guess I will get to that also, but I should address the very core of my being as I see it. Theologians and philosophers talk of people’s essence or personhood, so what is my essence of being? At my very core I am a product of grace. I am an adopted son of God that does not deserve that title. I was given that status by no work of my own but by the wonderful gift of God. At my very core I am a Christian. In theological terms this means I am one who is a redeemed child of God by the power of God’s grace through the avenue of faith in the work of Jesus Christ on the cross. Well that is who I am.Who are you?
Nice blog.
I have a technical analysis site. It covers technical analysis related stuff. Feel free to check it out. Good ideas for diversifying your portfolio.
There is risk of loss trading futures / options.

Okay, I know you told me that you weren’t going to send the link out just yet, but curiosity got the best of me and I went to my favorite blogging source and got your link from him. I think that you are off to a great start and look forward to your next post. Do you plan on posting on a regular basis (daily, weekly, monthly) or just randomly as inspiration leads you? I guess only time will tell.

hey Micah! I’m checking out your blog! Your super-coolness has inspired me to set one up, and my super-coolness knows how to host it on my own domain! I don’t have any entries yet, but I put the template up here! Have you thought about southaustingrace.com/blog?
