I love to write. Sometimes I wish that I could sing . . . but the truth is my passion is writing. It is my tool of expression. When I’m happy . . . I want to write about it. When I am upset, I have to write it out. When I learn something new, the very first thing on my mind is writing it down. Then, after I have written about it, the most immediate thing on my mind is sharing what I learned with others.
Writing heals me. . . it makes me grow and when I am not writing I am not expressing who I am in a manner in which brings me satisfaction. I am not being myself.
If an apple a day keeps the doctor away then my apple is writing. “Having my cake” . . . is writing – “eating it too” . . . is sharing it with others.
I have asked the universe for lots of things and although they may not have come wrapped in the neat little beautiful packages that I’d hoped for . . . they arrive and I have received them all . . . including THIS opportunity to write and share. . . and this particular package came in an even bigger and more beautiful package than I could have imagined it could have arrived.
When you are given a talent, you must learn about it, practice it and exercise it so that it grows and spreads and helps others. That is what I have committed to do this year. I will eat my apple a day and I will have my cake and eat it too!
