Today I’ve decided to
return to my blog – I was just scrolling through my FB feed and said to myself:
Go and blog.
This post will be short
as I need to do some NOVEL WRITING. I’ve
been good about writing a little each day. Found a great photo with a message
to post on my wall by the computer:
Secret
To Writing a Bestseller:
You
write.
You
stop dreaming about writing.
You
stop talking about writing.
Stop
wishing you were writing.
And
you write. --Jonathan Gunson
It’s working!
The one for sure thing I do want to say
today is: Love the folks in your life.
Tell them. Show them.
The last few months have been the prime
example of life being short. Death seems to be stalking my world lately. And everyone who has passed was under the age
of 50! I told my mom that when she was my age I don’t remember her going to
some many funerals – not that I’ve gone to all of them, since Daryl returned to
the Universe I’ve only been to two funerals, they are just too hard for me. My
mom thought about my observation and realized I was right. The funerals she
attended were for older relatives not her peers.
Peers dying so young can get inside your
head and play tricks with you and your fears. I’ve asked myself the following questions:
Do I have enough time? Am I doing what I am supposed to be doing? When am I
going die?
Before I go completely off the rails I
emotionally shake myself and say: When it’s your time it will be your time.
Your job will be done whether or not you knew what it was. So just keep moving
forward, enjoy each day, be grateful and love your people Valerie! Some days it works and other days when it
doesn’t some Haagen-Dazs Butter Pecan will do.
So in closing find what makes you feel good
– do it and Love your people!
