3 of My Favorite Blog Posts
Friday, June 12, 2009 at 06:00AM 
After nearly 150 posts on this blog, I realize that I have a lot to say, and have only just scratched the surface since I began Stepping into the Light just over one year ago. I've also discovered over the last year how much I enjoy reading other people's blogs--before I started my own I had only read a handful of mostly professional bloggers as a volunteer blog commenter for The Borgen Project.
But enough beating around the bush. The point is, I've decided I'll take a break today and point my readers to some of my favorite blogs to read, by mentioning just three of my favorite blog posts from recent months, in no particular order:
"Why Are You Not Sure There is No God? (From a Copywriter's Standpoint)" by my adorably direct buddy Bingkee (Vivienne) who keeps a widely varied blog called "I Love/Hate America" which is about a Filipina immigrant's (Bingkee's) love-hate relationship with American culture.
"Coming Out of the Desert" by one of the most delightful, down-to-earth, uplifting people I've met online, Yvette Nietzen, who is always a breath of fresh air on her Fresh Wind Ministries blog.
"Childhood Abandonment, Drugs, Insane Asylum: It's All Good." John Shore is flat-out one of the best writers I've ever had the pleasure of reading. He's got a rich story to tell and a why-this-is-funny way of telling it. I don't want to jinx John, but I predict that one day one of his books will be a New York Times #1 bestseller. In the meantime, I'll keep going back to John's blog for a regular dose of righteous wit and humorous testifying.
This was fun. Just the anticipation of the enjoyment some of you will get out of the posts I've shared is making me all tingly inside. Maybe I'll make this a monthly feature.

Thanks so much for this. I never knew you love it . I agree, make it a monthly feature.
Bingkee, "Why Are You Not Sure There Is No God?" has got to be one of my favorite titles of any piece of writing of all time. It's just down to earth and to the point and makes me want to giggle from my belly all at the same time -- just like you. The post is great too, not just the title. Love it.
