Day 94 - Introduction

It just dawned on me this evening that I forgot to mention what the title of my blog means and stands for. apologies all. Well firstly I shall explain what Ronin means, well I'll get it from wikipedia
Ronin - A ronin (浪人, rōnin?) was a samurai with no lord or master during the feudal period (1185–1868) of Japan. A samurai became masterless from the ruin or fall of his master (as in the case of death in a war), or after the loss of his master's favor or privilege. Please follow this link for more info.

I can only image where my interest began with these types of people, for you see the Samurai lived by a strict code the Hagakure (A guide for the warrior) and their master, so when a Samurai looses their master they became Ronin, and really should have committed suicide, than rather face a life with out direction or master.

And this is were my interest stems, I believe that many people me included are meandering through life, no direction, we have all but given up on religion where im from, Money and materilism are the new Gods, with the new big shopping centres the churchs, filled on Sundays might I add!

I know I lack direction and strive to find it I honestly do, but its a long road with many distractions, Sirens calling the sailors to shore, I must ignore, and live the life I have dreamed of!

I hope that has explained a little bit more of what Im saying in this blog, apologies to all as my computer will not allow me to upload pictures today, they paint a thousand words.
Well I want you to picture a rickety rope bridge spanning a vast Chasm (Think Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom) that bridge is what it feels like to be walking my life now! One slip and Im gone, gone and gone. Trying to stay on top of things

Now its late and Im nodding off, but I'll do an addition in the morrow.

Not forgetting the music check out these nutballs
