This is my first time writing a blog! I was inspired by this idea of sharing life's stories, thoughts and special moments on the www and also by a good friend, Adam. He is a wonderful friend and human being and just as I was asking him if he has ever created a blog, he responds that he has one and had just been looking at a challenge by Live your Legend to do a 7-day blog. What a coincidental moment! I find life tends to have many of those, if only we take the time to notice. They are the moments we need to grasp and move forward with. And so, with no further ado, here goes my first personal thought entry:
Humans are great storytellers. It is our gift and a great part of our evolution. Sharing stories allows us to learn, so we can expand on life's experiences and avoid possible mishaps. As wonderful as our stories may be, some however are distorted by our desires, shame, fear, guilt and extreme emotion. We weave our stories into the grid of the universe, every one of them has an impact. They can be beautiful as much as they can be destructive and we don't have to agree to all of the stories being told. Nature perhaps has the truest of stories to share, if only we care to watch, listen, taste, touch and smell. Ultimately, you will know from the silence within you, which stories resonate closely to your truth. With this blog, I would like to share some of the stories I have gathered and continue to gather in hopes to inspir-e-motion into the great dance that is life. Take a moment, breathe deep and dive into the expansive possibilities of our collective story.
