I always knew I was predestined for something great...
Something revolutionary...
Something groundbreaking...
Then we hit the ground and everything changed...
Everything I knew...
Everything I grew up with...
I was part of the generation who would change the world...
Back to the world from space...
Back to the world with passion...
But then there was so much that I did not expect...
There was so much I could not have ever anticipated...
Everything happened so fast...
The world had never stopped spinning...
I started to face my fears...
I led the rest as good as I could...
Some resisted...
Some died...
Some loved me...
Hard decisions had to be made...
Not everyone could be happy...
Not everyone could be fulfilled...
My heart has broken so many times...
My mind has been bent in so many ways...
I will lead on...
Pray on...
Fight on...
Survive on...

Lifting the Curtain to a Successful Month
April has been a fantastic month for me in terms of writing endeavors. I’d like to share what’s been so great about it just as many other writers would do. Share successes. I’ve noticed other writers or artists have shared successes and when you just see the snippet of their success, it appears everything has been going right for them all along. But we haven’t seen behind the curtain, we haven’t seen their hard work and their failures and those months that were fraught with disappointment. In everyone’s case, it’s far from the truth. But for the outside observer it isn’t always apparent.
