... and What Took You So Long?
I thought you would never get here!
(In all honesty, I thought I would never get here – but why split

At this point, I'm figuring I’ve spent
WAY too much time pondering, and it is time to move forward, so… here it is: my 1st posting for my 1st (ever!) blog -- with a welcome to you (above), and some excellent advice (below) for anyone (like me) fearful of taking that first step into a new endeavor.
Hope you enjoy -- and return often.

Do not be afraid
Don't be tethered to the past
let go and be free

ReplyDeleteOh Marie! I think you "bumped heads" with someone else when you tried to sign up to "follow" my blog. Unless you did it anonymously? I don't see you here. Maybe you want to try again?? :-]
DeleteThis is so perfect, Pamela!!
ReplyDeleteI love how you've drawn us in your favorite pondering place,the peek-a-boo tree hole and the personal voice you use to describe your process and creativity!
The sentiment with word and video really ties it all together!
