Why "Confidently Random?"

Hello!

When setting up a blog, the first thing you have to decide is the URL name.  Yikes!  Talk about a big decision right up front!  I tried various fun and/or catchy phrases or names, variations of my own name, and really whatever came to mind... which was a Big Blank before to long.  Everything I thought of had already been taken.

Then I thought about my purpose for the blog, and who I am.  Ooo, that one was difficult.  Who am I?

In a story I'll share later, I have learned and have accepted that I am random.  I can jump from one subject to the next, seemingly without any connection (although I promise there is), and keep going.  Items without a set location move around frequently.  I have also just accepted the fact that not everything I say is appropriate for the situation. I have said some pretty stupid things in the past.  The sad thing is, the more I try to explain myself - the worse I make it.  I can only shake my head and learn from it.

I have learned to be okay with this.  Actually, I know it's a uniqueness of mine for better or for worse.

I do not use that as an excuse to leave everything care free and not take responsibility.  Rather, I use this knowledge so I know how to move forward in a way that works for me and those around me.  This is where the word confidence comes in.  I know who I am.  This "randomness" is truly just a blessing to me.
