Well, I am here because the course of writing and sharing has changed over the years… When the computer first became a part of my writing journey there were Yahoo groups that brought us together to share, to write, to encourage, and to explore what everyone else was doing, feeling, and writing. I found great insights, inspiration,  and made friends with people all across the country who shared there.

Now, Yahoo Groups has gone the way of so many forums. I have never bought into most of the social media platforms. Facebook has changed, but I still have a page, pages there. I had read blogs, and what people write and share online in them. I’m new to this area of creating and sharing. I enjoy reading, seeing what others have to say, are sharing, and speaking about. In a world where life is transforming into a place where social interaction is overwhelmingly becoming technology-based, I decided to jump in and test the water…

I know I can’t stop thinking and writing, it is how I get out of my head, how I bring peace to the chaos. I always wanted to write, I dreamed of being a journalist once upon a time, long ago… life got in the way of that. But now, I have my own platform. I’m just enjoying the ride, hoping I touch someone in a way they feel my heart,  smile at my words, or even know they are not alone. I write or blog because I enjoy it, but I admit knowing someone liked it, read it, and even took the time to reply is exciting to me.  What about you ?
