Introduction

I am now in the process of setting up this blog. They promise that it's easy, I promise that it's not. Well...maybe it's me. 

This has been a thought, a passion, for many years. Over the years I have looked for and read self-help books, especially spiritual ones. I have searched blogs, searched everywhere I could think of but did not come across writings of believers in Christ who spoke my struggles. I found answers and solutions everywhere, but I longed in my soul to read the words of emotions and heart. The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don't know.

If you are not a Christian and have no desire for God, I promise I won't try to convince you. My relationship with God has been hard fought. I, like many, experience mental and emotional darkness with regularity and fluctuating intensity. I want to share some of my experiences with you regardless of your beliefs or mine. I want to be upfront with that before I begin.

There are many cliches about life being a journey, as much as I hate cliches it is the definition of life that makes the most sense to me and gives me hope for the future. I have made many mistakes and bad choices; I choose to believe they will lead me somewhere good.

So... whoever you are and wherever you are, I hope by reading my little blurbs they might help you feel a little less alone. In this season of my life I feel like I'm crawling out of a hole with sticky soft ribbons of a web melting against my face. My eyes are half open struggling to focus through harsh new beams of light. I am a "want to be" writer, a failure, sometimes a winner, depressed, sometimes hopeless but at the same time hopeful. I am...

Just me.
