Since I was a little girl, I have often felt the need to write down
my thoughts, feelings and experiences. Throughout my life I have written many poems, songs, short stories, journal entries and more. Each time I wrote something, it was like a release. There was something inside of me that just had to come out. The things that I would write seemed to help me change and grow as a person. I always felt that they were meant just for me. That is, until now. Lately, I have felt the urge to write again. But this time I feel like I’m supposed to share what I write. I have always been an emotional person. Some say I wear my feelings on my sleeve for all the world to see. Well, maybe it takes that kind of person to write what I’m supposed to write. And maybe it takes that kind of person to open up and be willing to share such a personal side of themselves. It is my hope that in sharing this intimate part of me, others will somehow be uplifted, encouraged and inspired.
There is no rhyme or reason to what I write or when I write it. And so, that will be the nature of this blog. I will be writing about my past, my present and my plans for the future. I will be posting some things written previously which I feel are timeless. I might even surprise myself by writing about a current event or two. But no matter what I post, this blog will be a reflection of who I am, where I’ve been and where I’m going. This is ~ The Journey ~ As Seen Thru My Own Eyes…Welcome!

Out of great pain is great writing born…looking forward to seeing all that your “labor pains” bring forth!!!
You are a great wordsmith. Everything is coming together nicely. Can’t wait to see what’s next.

I’ve know you since you were a little girl
and I have always seen this side of you.
Your doing good kid, Your going to have a large crew following you if you keep on going
I love your writing. Ever time I read something of yours I am reminded of my childhood because I think in a lot of ways we expressed ourselves in same ways. I always wrote down my stuff and was always very poetic. Keep on shining sister.
One love,
Don
