And so it begins....

So... for years people have told me that I should write a blog... and I have always had an excuse.  "I don't have time",  "there are so many other blogs, I am sure my will be lost among them", and so many others.  But really all of it boiled down to... self doubt, I was afraid to fail.  So what changed? I was left with a situation where I have nothing to lose. I lost my job.  Totally unexpectedly I walked into work on a Monday morning, and due to changes, I was "let go".  So after a good cry and being depressed, I decided to pick myself up and look on the bright side.  I now have the time to do some of the things that I want.  I have time to be creative and do things that bring me joy. I have a chance to succeed at something I like doing.  I decided to start a blog to share my ideas and thoughts.  I am excited for what lies ahead and I look forward to sharing my thoughts, ideas, and life.
