What will be

This is not yet a reality.  It is the space where a new life will be documented as it is created.  I am nearly ready to begin.  Just one more deep breath...

It's been a while since I last exercised my writing voice, and I am looking forward to developing the habit of recording my thoughts again.  I've been so stifled in recent years that giving myself this venue feels a little like I imagine sprouting wings to be.

Up until a couple of weeks ago I had a job that I dearly loved and that I felt was really making a difference in the world.  Unfortunately that job kept me from all other pursuits.  No art, no music, no social outlets.  My thoughts, feelings, and ideas were to be kept to myself.  They weren't allowed out where they could interfere.  I was also held back from being as effective as I know I could have been as an employee.  It's hard, if not impossible, to thrive in an environment when you are consistently and deliberately set up to fail.

So it was time to go.

Now I have the time and head space to contemplate my next big jump.  I plan to become a Digital Nomad.  A self-employed world-traveler making a living online and seeing what this big wide world has to offer.  How am I going to make this a reality?  I have no idea.  That's half the fun.

What I do know is that I am blessed with good health, a creative mind and a whole tribe of people whom I love dearly and I know in my deepest heart they love me back.

It's enough.

Blessings to you.
