As 2010 comes to a close, a year in which I obtained three other very important certifications in the field of education and licensure, I felt it necessary to add one more title to my already impressive list of credentials: Ordained Minister. November 14, in the year of our Lord / Lords / lack of Lord(s), 5771 (Jewish calendar) / 2010 (Roman Catholic), marks the day I became an official ordained minister by way of the Universal Life Church Monastery.
If I had to guess, I would bet that you are wondering how I found the time to go through the rigors of becoming an ordained minister. Well, my friends, all I can say is that when I'm passionate enough about something I go headlong into it, full bore. I'm so passionate and dedicated to this field of study that while writing this blog post I became ordained again! See? This time I studied at the prestigious Open Ministry.
My intent isn't to come off as a braggart, my dear friends. Truthfully, I only want to rub your nose in my awesomeness a little. Maybe something close to 7%-10%. The remainder of my intent is to inspire you to achieve greatness, too. (Also, I'd like to marry a couple. I think that would be a great deal of fun.) So, go out there and make your dreams come true. Anything is possible, my flock, because we are all Children of the Universe.
