Welcome to My Man Journal

Well they say that misery loves company - I guess we'll see. This blog is meant to be my personal diary so-to-speak, except that I'm a dude so I'll refer to it as my "man journal."

If you are a guy then you might share in some of the crappola that I'm going through. If you are a woman, then you will be able to identify some of the crappola that your man (if applicable) is going through.

So the title of the blog is "I have got your back - you got mine?" because I DO have your back if your a fellow bro suffering at times as I do. I've got your back in prayer b/c I'm a praying dude. I'll spare you my history that has led to my current spiritual "place" (btw, this blog will be somewhat raw and at times may come off as unchristian sounding because I ain't perfect!) but the one thing that does keep me sane is my faith in Jesus. BUT I'm going through what's been referred to as a "dark night" right now, so even my faith is under attack at times.

The "you got mine?" question is because while I'll be praying for everyone that follows this blog, I would also appreciate you praying for me. I need all the help I can get just as I'm sure you do, too. And that goes for the ladies. I'll be praying for your guys and ask that you pray for me too - cool??

Now this thing is an experiment. If there are enough people that follow then I'll know that I should continue this little project. But if it doesn't go anywhere, then I may just pull the plug on it & disappear. So if you dig this, please feel free to pass the word on to friends & family who may have an interest. Not to say that anyone will ever learn anything of substance, but hopefully if we all stick together and know that we share similar struggles life might get a wee bit easier.

Topics will include marriage, parenthood/kids, work (which sucks), failures, successes (if any show up), spiritual struggles and any other crap that comes along. Just be prepared for vulgarities and rants at times depending on the subject matter. K? Cool!
