My Dive into Blogging

Here I am, a wanna-be writer writing for the first time in public. I've journaled off and on since 1999 and have used it to connect with the me that is greater than any notion I could ever fabricate. Journaling allowed me to receive inspiration to persist through terrible challenges that I'd care never to repeat. In the midst of them I learned four major lessons: 1) That there is not really any such thing as loss, except for losing oneself in the craziness around us. 2) That I really do have the wherewithal to become whomever I need to become as soon as I need to become that person. 3) I can awaken to the choices before me, choose, and be (or become) splendid with the outcome. 4) From wherever I am or whomever I have become, I am always manifesting a new place and person to be.
