Welcome to Life on the Edge!
Thank you for visiting my new blog. Throughout history, ideas have shaped who we are as human beings. My chief aim for this blog is to be an exchange of ideas that have helped shape who you are today - to give you a voice for the ideas that have shaped your values. This may be a grandmother who raised you to be the man, husband, father you are today. It may be a thought from Confucius, the Bible, or your neighbor next door. I encourage you to share not only the thought, but how it has shaped you regarding your attitude, habits, or beliefs.
My hope is that we would strive to be lifelong learners, embracing the collective thoughts and ideas to bring out the best in us all.

Great, Jonn! I’m really excited to see how this shapes up. I know that watching my collegiate track and field coach live his life, and just overhearing his conversations, greatly shaped who I want to be today. I’ve got a long way to go before I’m there, but it gives me something to aspire to!

Jonn, I was shaped by the great examples of men I admired. Some were scoutmasters, church leaders, coaches, and school teachers.
