Several years ago I heard a man give an exhortation about transparency. The analogy he used was that of a wardrobe. You know, like the one seen in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe?
The question he was asking was how transparent are you willing to become? Are you just a wardrobe sitting there looking pretty or are you willing to allow others into your life. Are you willing to just let people look at you or are you willing to let people go into your ‘bottom’ draw, so to speak, and learn about the depths of who you are?
This exhortation was many years ago but one I often ponder and meditate on during different times of my life. This year of 2009 I am feeling to be a year of writing, a year to put my ponderings down, for Lord only knows whose eyes will see. So, I invite you into my wardrobe. I invite you into my Narnia. I can’t promise any epic battles or kings, queens, princes or princesses. I will, however, push myself to become more transparent in my writing and in the sharing of my ponderings.
