That first step was the toughest.
My head full of what ifs...
My heart's memory imprinted with endings
that persuade me to pull back,
give up, give in...do anything
but begin. Anything but reach out.
But start I did. I wrote.
Then I took a breath, and
hit "publish"... then hit it again.
350 times. No pulling back, no
giving up. Just sending my heart
and thoughts and dreams and fears
out there into our shared blogosphere.
Today you join me for another
first. We're linking up here today!
Taking this first step was easier.
Because you're all here. You've listened,
heard, commented and invited me in.
And we'll continue to create and
share ~ six words at a time!
Your turn!
I'm glad you hit publish! I love coming to your blog and feeling refreshed and inspired!

ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your long 6 words. It feels so poetic. :)
ReplyDeleteDoing something for the first time is always the worst. Thankfully practice makes it easier (sometimes). Thanks for taking this over!
