We have these moments in life that surprise us at first

Amazon Book pricing
Book price reduction went live yesterday, April 6, 2015. Dropped to $10.99 from $19.99 at author’s request.

 

The following is from two nights ago…decided it is blog worthy today…

Typing this in the dark.

We have these moments in life that surprise us at first but then they don’t.

Lying in bed right now, on this Easter Sunday night, a moment.

And the thing is, our little moments are insignificant to the rest of the world.

But they astonish us.

Six years ago, couldn’t write my way out of a wet paper bag.

But started writing anyway.  And as a result, in just five more days, the 11,000th blog post will go public.

Relish your insignificant moments, because no one else will.

But that doesn’t mean your moment isn’t significant.

It is.

And use your moment to create more moments.

It’s easier to quit when we are disappointed

Disneyland room headboard and hidden Mickey

When it comes to shaping our attitude, the long way is the short cut.

Take this blog (and the other four Mid Life Celebration blogs) for example.

Many bloggers begin writing because they believe:

“If you build it write it they will come”.

Everyone who’s ever blogged knows this is a lie.

The bloggers who continue to write (in spite of the lie) well past a reasonable amount of time discover something.

It’s not an audience we write for, we write for ourselves. Because we need the writing. For ourselves.

A writer, probably, will stop writing when she no longer needs it.

You’ll be the first to know.

Million reasons why we never saw it before – a list a mile long no doubt

 

Lloimonincia Hall, an LSO sophomore, just changed the way gymnastics is presented.

She took a risk.

With a heart full of passion.

Million reasons why we never saw it before – a list a mile long, no doubt.

Including you might get banned, or kicked off the team.

What does this mean to any of us?

Everyone told the beginning blogger to focus on one blog.

No one is going to get five interconnected blogs.

Art only becomes art when it is done freely, with unstoppable passion.

You, reading this, are an artist.

But you may not believe it.
