She's Baaaack!

Well, it's been some years, folks. It's been some years (almost 5!!) since I last wrote in my blog and stopped sharing some of my life with you all. Why did I stop, you ask? The same reason we all stop doing many things in life, sadly.  It was because of fear. I worried about what others would think too much. I was posting some very personal stories and was worried about what my readers would think. Instead of worrying about people, I should have been focused on what God wants me to do and that is to share his love with you all through the gift he has given me, which is the ability to write.  Here's the thing, I am planning on writing some more in this blog, but I have some even BIGGER news to share. Are you ready for this? Ok, here goes....

I have FINALLY started writing my book, y'all.  Many of you don't even know this has been a dream of mine for years to write a book, but for some of you, you might find this exciting. I will share later what/who has inspired me to finally get going with this, but I am choosing to share this news publicly so that I can have some accountability partners. As much as I love to write and have a dream to do so, with everything else going on (working full time, raising a husband and two kids, etcetera, etcetera (yes, I used that fun word twice on purpose, and yes, I said raising a husband), it is actually something that I need support and encouragement with so that I stick to it.  In other words, I need you, my dear reader, whoever you may be. 

So, all of this talk of me pursuing my dream begs the question that I'd like to ask you. What is it that's stopping you from pursuing yours?
