It started with a small thought. You know, those little sparks of hope that long to burst into a full-fledged bonfire of imagination. You’ve had them too, haven’t you? Then you talk yourself out of it. “No one wants that.”, or “I don’t have the time for that.” You move forward into the busyness of life and drop your kernel of a dream into the box that holds all the Maybe-Sometime-Later within it.
Well, I decided that it was time to blow the dust off my box and start unfolding some of those dreams.
I have been pondering the idea of a blog for years, yes years. What I originally thought my little space in the world would be about has changed over time. My thoughts, dreams, various hobbies, and passions have evolved or fallen by the wayside. That’s what happens when your journey has taken a while to get started.
We all know that one of the hardest things about starting something new is usually just the starting of it. I woke up one morning recently and felt a nudge that this was the day to begin putting my thoughts out into the world and see what might become of them. Before I gave myself the opportunity to ignore that nudge again, I went to my laptop and typed out what you read here. Nothing earth-shaking, just a little spark, hoping to go out into the world and land where it needs to be, igniting a flame within you to also try something new today.
I would love to have you join me on this journey, seeing where it takes us as we explore books, crafts, natural health, and simple living in the life the Lord has set before us.
