Do you ever have moments where you feel moved? Where inspiration is just bubbling forth and you need an outlet just like a swimmer needs oxygen after being under water for a long time? Well, this happens to me frequently and what I'm finding is that the writer in me is longing to burst forth and find her niche. I'm a person of many words (those who know me would agree) and I process my thoughts and ideas externally. There are pros and cons to this way of functioning. I've noticed that sometimes the really important things I have to say can get lost and buried in all the non important things I have to say.
Writing helps me get to the point quicker, well usually. Because I do pretty much guarantee some babbling from time to time.
Why start a blog, especially when everyone else has one and the world doesn't need another, you ask? Excellent question. The answer to that is fairly simple---I feel like I have something to say. Let me expound. Everyone is on a journey. Your journey has highs and lows, mountains and valleys, grief and joy. If you're on the mountain top right now, please enjoy it because I can pretty much guarantee that you're life won't always be a mountain top experience. If you're in a valley, let me encourage you to embrace the learning and growth opportunities and know, this too shall pass; you will survive and as far fetched as it may seem right now, you will have your mountain top experiences too! Trust me!
Your journey is unique to you just as my journey is unique to me. I want to share my journey with you. I want to allow you a glimpse of this crazy ride I'm on and hopefully, just maybe, I can inspire you to find that part of you, deep down inside--that maybe you've buried or didn't even know existed--that longs to truly live life with joy and purpose; that part of you that needs the courage and perhaps even the permission to dream again. I'm here to say, "permission granted."
