I was asked to leave five words that might get to the spirit of this web site. \u00a0That was tough but here they are:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Searching.\u00a0 Opening. \u00a0 Moving. \u00a0 Processing.\u00a0 Trying.<\/p>\n<p>Those are not just some sort of cute esoteric words that I thought you would like. \u00a0In my best moments, those are important words and in my worst moments, those are words that I wish I could remember. \u00a0I fail often. \u00a0I hope you will forgive me when I do.<\/p>\n<p>I like to write and I do so in odd places and at odd times. \u00a0I&#8217;m not a trained writer or photographer. \u00a0 I have spent my work career in data processing and accounting. \u00a0However, my life career has been in appreciating creativity and marveling at the breadth of human experience. \u00a0I like to create so hence the contents of this website.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, this picture was taken a long time ago and I am now older in years and I&#8217;ve started to think about the time I have left to make a contribution. Frankly, aging is a liberating process and I&#8217;m happy to get the chance.<\/p>\n<p>Do you want to know more? \u00a0 Ask. \u00a0Maybe we will start a conversation. \u00a0I would like that.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Greetings. \u00a0Thanks for taking the time to stop by. \u00a0I hope you will stick around and we might find&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"spay_email":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-30","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/P7aJeL-u","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lonniebuerge.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/30","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lonniebuerge.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lonniebuerge.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lonniebuerge.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lonniebuerge.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=30"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.lonniebuerge.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/30\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":98,"href":"https:\/\/www.lonniebuerge.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/30\/revisions\/98"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lonniebuerge.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=30"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
