I want to know how it works

Our journey into the unknown is rife with peril. The only real motivation for hope is to yearn for the afterlife. I want to know how to get to Heaven. This earthbound wonder of an existence is surely not all we have to look forward to. There must be, beyond this life, a boundless, wonderful, rest-stop on the journey of Eternity. I must find the way there.

“This earth holds nothing for me, but thee.” (Psalm-Ezekiel)

I want to see that horizon, march into that wonder, take my place in the pantheon of kindred souls. To bow and worship the Living Savior. To kiss His feet. To joyously proclaim for as long as I am able: “Jesus is Lord!”

Squidoo U and JaZilla

We see a black hole full of interesting stuff on the internet everyday. This item from Squidoo Lensmasters (a social bookmarking website like Technorati,del.icio.us or Digg ). Squid U had this wonderful bit of fluff regarding “getting noticed.”

Squidoo : Your lens, “How To Set Up Your Office In A Coffee Shop,” was chosen as Lens of the Day and is one of my personal favorites. This is a fun and unique topic they won’t teach you in school. How did you come up with the idea for it?

JaZilla : When I was deciding what I wanted to do lenses on Squidoo about, I kept remembering that old saying about “write what you know”. I know about using a coffee shop for an office; for years I’ve had a favorite local coffee shop that I’ve worked in. My husband even bought me a laptop several years ago so that I could write there.

Squidoo : Even though your topic doesn’t have to do with a specific and popular search term, your lens has done well. Why do you think this is?

JaZilla : I’m not sure. Some of it may be the result of promoting the lens myself, but I suspect that a lot of Squidoo readers are cafe society people. There’s a lot in common between people who like to hang out at coffee shops and Squidooers; you have to like a bit of chaos and be interested in a lot of esoteric subjects.

She recommends:

JaZilla’s Lessons for Lensmasters:

1. Write what you know–however weird or obscure
2. Write passionately about what you know
3. Write a lot about what you know
