I
went to sign into my WordPress account and I could not remember my password.
It is then I know it has been too long since I have written….
In two recent conversations, on separate occasions, my niece and nephew said they missed it when I didn’t write their birthday tributes last year. I realized I have tributes to write for Anne and Andrew and Ellie this year because I promised myself I wouldn’t fall behind….
It is then I know it has been too long since I have written….
Life has been full of events that are noteworthy in 2015. Events like Dutch having a tail amputation, my continued pursuit of wellness, the stories of travel and rest in Mexico and Missouri, leadership stories from the boards I serve on, family moments that I don’t want to forget and transforming my deck for deck dinners. I want to remember what my heart holds in these seasons of life and I know that over time, the memories fade as new ones unfold. As I list the things I want to write about in my journal….
It is then I know it has been too long since I have written….
And so what keeps me from writing?
I often think during the day “I am going to write tonight.”
I often begin to compose my thoughts and delight in what unfolds as I reflect on a thought or image.
And then the evening comes and bedtime rolls around I drift off….
And so as I reenter and find my password, as I see the words fill the page, I am aware of my desire to incorporate writing into my routine again.
I wonder what you want to incorporate into your routine during this Spring season. Why don’t you join me and make that one thing happen.
I have stories to tell from the daily events of life that are part of the legacy I want to leave, some day, a long time from now, I hope children of my nieces and nephews children might know about Aunt Trish and Dutch and God’s provision and presence in the Borgdorff family way back in 2015!
It is time to write again!
Looking forward to being with you tomorrow night.
Yes, it has been too long and you are gifted. I look forward to your words whether each night or whenever. I understand. I care. I love you, b
I have so missed the rich words that you share Trish…welcome back!
