Taking it Seriously

You know what's not comfortable? Chasing a dream and taking it seriously. I committed to myself to keep up with this blog with at least 2 uncomfortable experiences per week until my daughter was born. Sofia is 2 months old now, and pretty much every waking moment of my life is a joyful journey of discomfort now. I'm never quite ready for the next challenge.

Not feeling the need to be too intentional about pushing myself into discomfort anymore, I'm moving onto a new project. I'm wrapping up a year of living in San Diego and am about to add a new batch of long distance friends to my collection. Make new friends, but keep the old right? So while my new challenge needs to me having the courage to make those new friends, I also don't want to lose the treasure of the friends I've made thus far. So one of my best long-distance friends and I have started a new blog:

longdistancelobsters.com

I've wanted to be a writer for decades, so I'm finally trying to do something about it.

This is me feeling terrified about another transition, feeling called to take the craft of writing more seriously, and having a REALLY fun time with a very dear friend. I really pray and hope that this will also be an encouragement to you, to help you love others better. I hope you'll check it out, follow our new blog, give us some good tips, and enjoy some good food for thought and laughter.

Thanks for being part of this project with me thus far!

Blessings!!
