A start..

How do I begin?
How do I get there?
Step by step, word by word, I get closer and closer, right?
Closer to what, seems to be, an unattainable goal.
I smile because their IS hope.
Now I just need to mix that hope with some perseverance and then my path will be marked out before me, right?
I'm not sure about a certain formula, or a way of doing things that will get me there.
I am sure of one thing though:
A passion. A love for writing , words on a page, pen to paper, and empty notebooks filled with possibilities. I'm sure what God has given me. A gift. A love; for what I am doing now and what is going to come of it. An excitement that God's in control of my gift, and He will ultimately do what he will do with it.
I just have to be willing...

The lovely, pure and thoughtful..

I wish, sometimes, that I would look at my life with more depth and FEELING.
That I would live EVERY moment, in that moment and not living just for what's next.
Why should I spend my questioning about why? And when? And how? When life, is happening right now.

I want to live my life with a new appreciation for laughter, lovely things, and relationships.
I don't want to worry or analyze or focus on things, that just don't matter.
The truth is, I want to make steps towards what is real, and enjoy myself.

When did I become to distant and unaware of who I am and what surrounds me? I don't want to simply exist. Instead I want to insist upon living a full, passionate life, that is not only filled with joy, but glorifies that Almighty God! I dedicate my life to Him and His plan, and I am confident in that plan.

Sometimes we have to go through the storms in life, to really appreciate when the sun comes shining through...
