"You stand up for what you believe in, even if it gets you in the way of what others think..."

My photo
if i could use one word to describe my life SERENDIPITY seems to fit the space... i stumbled upon my husband during a time i shouldn't have and my story goes on from there... constantly falling or stumbling upon remarkable gifts and people who bring fortune to our lives... when we fall we learn and strive toward the next step.

writer~





"Be yourself, Above all,
let who you are, what you are,
what you believe,
shine through every sentence you WRITE,
every piece you finish."
john jakes

writ·er/ˈrītər/

mama...why do you WRITE on the computer


...valid question...


i WRITE for many reasons

i WRITE to release my thoughts and feelings
i WRITE to remember
i WRITE to share
i WRITE to process
i WRITE to give
i WRITE to learn
i WRITE to explore
i WRITE because i can

i WRITE because i am a WRITER

it doesn't matter what you WRITE just as long as you WRITE

I love the quote Brandi, I think that should go for all we do. Thank you for your desire to share, you often give me cause to stop and ponder.

Such a beautiful quote. I love it. Writing has always been healing for me. Have kept a journal for more years than I can remember.

I love the quiet of morning, cup of coffee and soft lamp light~~~the only sound is the pen scratching across the paper of my journal.
Life is so good in those moments.

XXOO~~

Laura said...

exactly so. I was WRITING to a friend in an email this morning, a Gospel singer who feels inhibited about writing: Writing the same as singing; just open your heart through your fingers and type out your song. Fear of exposure is common among creative people and yet that is exactly what we are here to do, to be. We are here to be seen, heard, to reveal through our frail, fractured, imperfections our beauty born of Divinity.

Our stories are precious gifts, to hold them inside is to deny others glimpses of themselves...we are mirrors for each other...so we must write, sing, paint, dance...express our essence...the essence of everything wants to connect with its own ONEness.

Keep writing dear Brandi, keep writing.

Beautiful quote. I write only on my blog. I used to keep a personal journal but I stopped years ago. Sometimes I will bust out a notebook and write my stuff down but I usually end up using it as a spell of sorts and burning it. When I stop blogging I always start to get a little more crazier than usual. I have this innate need to make people giggle. I've even had someone tell me I'm their guilty pleasure! ahahaha!
