Oh, How The Years Pass
November 1st, 2008Wow, 365 days ago I decided to begin a journey on this website that included making time each day to journal, rant, gush, or just talk through the happenings of my life. Originally the goal was to write every day for the month of November, and once that ended I just couldn’t stop. As I’ve read back over the past fews days at the highlights and struggles of this last year, I realize just how blessed I am to have an outlet for processing and documenting my little moments.
I’m sure to many the concept of blogging must be a lot like the musical encore, a desperate cry for attention and affirmation. (Seriously, why do we even scream for the encore. We know it’s gonna happen.) Yet, for me even if everyone stopped reading my words on their computer screen, I don’t think I could cease writing. Some of hardest days and saddest moments have been laid to rest here. I’ve taken verbal snapshots of the best times of my life, so that they will never be forgotten. Most importantly, I’ve found a home for me. So as a new November begins this morning, I’m not going to make a huge pledge to post every day. There’s just no need. Instead, I’m going to keep on expressing me and hope that a few of you might be touched, entertained or inspired along the way.
Music is my life. Everything can be expressed, handled or just felt more deeply with the right chord or phrase. I have been blessed with some amazing friends and am still at that point where my life is an open book. If you’d like, stick around for a bit and help me write a few chapters…
