I have had few close friends in my life, and after writing this blog, I have fewer. I don't think I have anything I want to take back or re-state. This Christian thing is about truth, and the things I've written have not been opinions, but convictions.
This means that those who disagree are colliding with more than my ideas: they are intersecting with the fiber of who I am.
I want to keep friends, and I believe in esteeming other people's ideas and feelings. But Jesus is dead serious, and Christ's followers in America have spent way too much time waffling around the truth.
Truth can be painful and revolutionary; it can divide and bring together; it can change you or make you uncomfortable with staying the same.
It can do none of this, however, if it's left unstated.
About Me
- Nicholas Park
- My father had World War II. I had the counterculture. I am 60 now, but my life was formed 40 years ago, and the things I went through then go far in defining who I am today. I don't want to be maudlin or foolishly sentimental about those days, but I would like to be a conduit for talking about the things that moved and changed many of us in the late 1960s. Photos will be posted. Please send your photos to me to share. No story will go untold, no comment will be altered, no photo re-touched. I would love to have some old time freaks contribute to this discussion. Wannabe and young-time freaks welcome also.
