Today is the first day of the rest of my life… I woke up with that feeling resonating so strongly within me this morning. Right now, just days away from my 30th birthday, I feel very much like a woman on the verge of something… new. Those of you who know me know that I crave stability… I’m a Capricorn, an earth sign, and we need to have our roots firmly anchored in the ground in order to grow… I guess what I’ve realized lately is that my roots have been anchored firmly, but in a pot that is a few sizes too small… I’ve been maintaining, throwing off pretty blooms and all, but my growth has been constrained by the confines of the pot. I need to get out of the pot, lol.
In the spirit of branching out into the exciting unknown, 2006 is dedicated to the aggressive pursuit of my dreams… Which I suppose is what brings us all here. Everyone has a calling, a unique gift, a special skill. I know now that my calling is to write. It’s not just what I do, it’s who I am… And ever since I embraced this core truth about myself, things in my world have started changing… Are you familiar with the concept of synchronicity? It’s a belief that coincidences are not merely coincidences, but actually signs that you are on the right path… Well since I hopped on the path leading towards the Bestsellers List :-), life finally feels like it has purpose again. I have my sights on a future that inspires me, that I feel passionate about. It is the road less travelled for sure, but the Universe has my back… I seem to get just the right information and encouragement, right when I need it, and I know eventually I’m gonna get where I’m going. My faith has been renewed.
I finished my first book in 2005, and have committed the bulk of my time and resources to pursuing a writing career. We’re talking full tilt, baby. And now, like many others trying to get their words out to the masses, I have started a blog, lol. I’m not sure what I’m trying to accomplish here — like my books and my career, this blog a work in progress… I’m envisioning something part diary, part promotion, part social commentary. We’ll see how it goes — like everything else, I’m making this up as I go along…
Welcome to my World.
