Starting up a blog for 2013

This is the first post for my new blog.  I've always enjoyed reading other people's blogs and have been a very avid Facebook user for several years now.  But I never found it necessary to start my own blog.  I think I'm jumping on the bandwagon at this point in time because I'm interested in finding ways to share my life, my thoughts and my ideas about the things I'm passionate about - outside of the regular facebook status updates & pinterest pins.

I must admit I've only recently started using Google + as another social media resource for me to find inspiration for my own life.  With all this exposure to the world outside myself, I've found there to be so many positive & beautiful expressions of life and all it has to offer.  The desire has been birthed within me to not only take the opportunity to connect with so many different people outside of my own daily existence.  I've also felt a natural transition into this blogging universe stemming from the need to share my thoughts & experiences with others who might also enjoy my daily journey.

It's a new year and a new season in my life where I've finally started to stop caring so much about what other people think about me. It's time- although some might consider me a late bloomer in this - to fully blossom into my own life with my husband, children, precious friends and family.

I've learned that life is way too short, since in just the past couple of years, I've seen my Pastor, two of my uncles, a friend's mother, many church friends, and others pass from this life.  And so I think it's important to truly live life expressed to it's fullest while I'm still alive and can actually still do that.

So, here's to a new season and a new expression of all that I was made to be, thanks to my Creator, Sustainer, and lover of my soul.  I'm ready to receive all that God made me to receive so I can continue to give to others from the overflow.  I'm ready for the abundant life God made me for.  Join with me on this journey for the best is yet to be!
