Sometimes when I am writing I just wonder to
myself “Is there anyone out there reading these?” This whole online journaling
is quite the interesting experience. I have kept journals all my life, but they
have only been for me. They are the story of my life, yet I have kept it to
myself.
What an exciting and scary adventure this is
in sharing my voice, my ideas, my emotions, everything about me. The additional
element in this experience is that I am not just telling my story anymore. I
get to tell everyone’s story. And everyone gets to read it, right away, with
the push of a “publish” button. This is
both awesome and scary. I don’t want to
get things “wrong”. But how could I if I am sharing me and my perspective? Well, the answer is that I can’t. Honesty is a powerful thing.
When we allow ourselves to “Be 100”, thank my kids
for teaching me that one, we no longer have to be afraid. We get to celebrate
our perspective, our story and the story of the people in our lives, the people
who are so important. We are “right” when we are ourselves.
I found out yesterday that I have a special
person in my life who has ready every, yes every, one of my posts! Now I feel loved and heard. Being vulnerable has its rewards, great ones
at that.
To my one reader who has read every one
of my posts…..your reward is that you get two!
: )
Merci Vanessa. Tu es formidable! Bises.
Knowing that I am heard and that others want to hear my voice…
This is why I teach!
