I am still feeling emotional about yesterday's blog, and the remembering of my sweet friend.....and it touched my heart that the entry touched other's hearts....and that it made an impact in the world.....I love when something I write resonates like that.....it makes it all so worthwhile, in every way......and the practice of writing my blog......or writing in general has become such a deep part of me.....the first thing I do when my eyes open.....after my coffee is made;-) and I sit, and sip my coffee, and write what is on my heart......in the quiet of the morning, and the white lights on my mantle.....with my music playing in the background.....and it is one of my favorite parts of my day......I look forward to doing it.....it never feels like a chore.....and it quite literally has been my lifeline in this story.....not even remembering who I was, before I was the woman that shared her heart and journey.....and I have really tried to be as honest as I can in this space....coming with my real.....my raw sometimes.....my deep.....wanting it to resonate with my readers.....wanting it to touch somebody, and have them not feel all alone in the world....and I let it come organically.....whatever comes to mind as I wait for the coffee to finish, is where I let it lead me......I don't often get stuck either.....once in awhile it is more challenging to hone in on a topic.....but mostly it flows....and I realize I don't live a wildly exciting life lol:) Not having a blog full of jet setting or otherwise;-) but......I do have a very real life.....and one that seems to speak to a certain group of folks....and for that I am grateful.....this blog has saved me......in every way a thing can save a person....I am not sure what I would have done if this hadn't nudged at me to create it.....and the pieces fell right together, like a puzzle....and I was blessed with some people in my life at the time, that supported the idea, and believed in it..... from its inception.....and it wasn't a big stretch....always on my bucket list....as writing and language have always been a love of mine.....but the actual DOING OF IT.....finally..... is the piece that is such a gift.....using some of my new free time in my life to help me heal......and it has been therapeutic in every way....and as I think of it right now.....it may have been the gatekeeper to my newfound discipline in my life??? Maybe.....because it became such a routine....and because of the part of me that is such a creature of habit...a lover of self discipline stuff...... and the other habits followed suit.....leading to daily practices that have changed my life.....I guess I feel like from time to time it is important to acknowledge the power of this blog for me, and the deep gratitude I have for finding it.....saying that out loud......and letting words lead me the places I want to be in my new life....BEING A WRITER, like for real now, is one of my most treasured titles, and makes me feel fulfilled in every way.....and I am grateful to every single one of my readers, forever and ever:) Happy Friday! We made it:)
