Taking the Leap

Okay, so here goes my first blog post EVER! I am now committed. I set a goal in July to launch my blog before my birthday, which is THIS Sunday! And, I just made it by the skin of my teeth. I have been procrastinating for a few years -- not because I don't have anything to share. I have drawers and drawers full of goodies - life experiences, design and spiritual inspiration waiting to be dusted off and set free. It's not that. It's because starting anything new usually causes some minor anxiety. I believe it can sometimes be intimidating and vulnerable for anyone to tell "their story". And it doesn't help matters that I am somewhat dyslexic. They say "Dyslexia is a gift. Many people who are dyslexic are creative, successful and intelligent". But, I tell you, it's no gift at all. I have so much admiration for the people who love to write and do it well. So, there it is, my writing sob story. Now that is out of the way and I've just unloaded my first blog woes for the world to read, I'm no longer going to use that as an excuse to hold me back. I'm diving in, taking the leap and letting go! This is a journey like all other journeys -- it will take on it's own form and rhythm. I will find my pace on a new, unfamiliar trail. So, please bear with me while I get into my blogging groove. Or is it bare with me? :)
