There are moments in your life that call you… this is one of those moments for me. My heart has been telling me to quit my career of 16 years, pursue writing and find my purpose. It started as a quiet whisper and now it is more of a pounding demand.
I am not a writer… or so I have told myself. Yet what is a writer? I have put my words on paper for as long as I can remember. They have been hidden from the world in a hope chest at the foot of my bed since I was a child. The journals of my yesterdays have perhaps prepared me for this day.
When I tell you I am both terrified and excited all bundled up into one, that does not even quite justify how I feel. Yet here I am. I am trusting in the one person I have silenced for years.
ME.
I am not quite sure what will come of this or where it may lead me, but for once in my life I am going to follow without question. I am open to what ever this journey may bring me.
My greatest hope is, that in my journey to following my heart… I inspire you, motivate you and move you to follow yours. Most of all I hope to remind you, of the truth about who you are, by sharing the truths about me.
So this is the beginning of my blog about finding myself and my purpose. I am excited of the posts to follow and hope you will join me for ride!
