Occasional Thoughts

About Me

Hello,
My name is Ron Beck. Honestly? I am nothing all that special. I am an average Joe just like you. I have made many friends in my lifetime and even a few enemies. I don't think I am any better then anyone I come across. I have ambition and desire to be better so, really, I'm probably not all that different from you.


I grew up in a very small town with less then 5,000 people in it. Because of this I LOVE the small town feel. Although I live in Utah right now, I plan on moving back to Oklahoma in a smaller town in the future. I miss going out at night and catching fireflies. I miss the thunderstorms and the experience of all 4 seasons.

Events in my life led me out of Oklahoma and I have now lived in 4 different states. Oklahoma, Colorado, Oregon, and Utah. I love each state for what they have to offer and strangely enough, they all have something very unique to offer. I play guitar and sing and am a graphic designer. I am also in the works of becoming a financial planner. So i have my dreams and am doing what I will to achieve them. Here is my graphic design website if you are interested. http://ronbeckdesign.clanteam.com/

I am married to a beautiful and amazing woman that helps me keep my sanity in these hard times. I love her with all my heart and am strictly devoted. Our personal blog is Diving in Nose Up

But enough about that...

The purpose of this blog is not necessarily to be a "Personal" blog, but to be a source of uplifting and encouraging reading. Or, At least, i hope that is what it becomes. I have no intention to "candy coat" anything I write. I wish this to be an honest portrayal of life and its hardships. And as you will see, we can overcome any of the hardships life has to offer.
