Greeting on July 4th!
July 4, 2008I set up this website in February 2008 with the promise that I would contribute regularly. I was meaning to add a piece at least once a month. Well this is only my second post and it's July. I don't suppose you want the reasons. Suffice it to say that now I'm ready to write.
I want this website to be about me--a topic I know most about. But it is also musings about what I see, hear, discover, and learn about throughout the year. I love reflective writing it helps me think more deeply about my experiences. But writing takes courage! The courage to write is probably my biggest obstacle. In the end, it's not an expansive vocabulary, good spelling, time, or editing knowledge that counts in writing; it's courage. (I'm not even sure if that is the correct use of a semi-colon, but it works for me.) I'm not even sure day-to-day if I have all that much to say, but I will try to follow the advice my mother gave me years ago; practice, practice, practice. (There's that damn semi-colon again. I must look up how to use it.) For anything in life requires desire, determination, and practice.
This seems like a good place to end. I will go back to my daughters, who are gaining strength in craziness by chasing each other around and screaming at the top of their lungs. They are supposed to be getting ready for bed. Please stop by again and leave a comment.
