I want to write, I want to express and share my feelings but I do not want to write about the mundane things going on in my life. Someday I would love to write a book on a brilliant topic. I have no idea what that topic is yet?
I love reading blogs. I love reading journals, biographies, etc. When I read about another's journey and the trials and celebrations they are going through I am encouraged. I gain wisdom and encouragement from women who have gone through many life experiences before I have experienced them myself. Learning that not everyone is perfect, and about the daily insecurities and trials women suffer through reminds me that I am not alone. It reminds me that we are in is thing called 'life' together, and even in those moments when God feels so distant, or more appropriately, we feel so distant from God, we have friends. Friends in the blogging world, at our workplace, at church, or half way across the world that can encouarge us, sympathize with us, and just help to make us feel 'known'. I love when I feel 'known'. When someone knows my talents and my flaws and loves me and supports me dispite my shortcomings.
Community is truly a gift from God.
