I began writing a book many years ago and was very passionate about it. After about 2 years into it, as it got closer and closer to being completed, life began to happen. Or should I say I allowed life to happen and redirect my efforts. My family and friends that had seen what I was writing strongly encouraged me to continue my pursuit. Truth be told- I don’t remember the day or specific reason why I put it away. Maybe I was afraid to expose my writing style, thoughts, time, energy and effort publicly. Maybe that is why it has been on my mind so much lately… because I am learning to just write my thoughts my way and let the chips fall where they may and have been very happy with the outcome.
I figure, the entire premise of this blog is about honoring Heather’s life that ended way too soon, the importance of fully embracing my life while I can, living my life with intention and taking chances to experience more aspects of life offered every...single....day.
If there was one thing about myself that I have always loved, nurtured and respected- it was my free spirited nature- never afraid to make a change or have new experiences. Which is why it is weird to think “Did I somehow let fear censor me into never completing my book- something I was truly passionate and excited about?”
The very instant I picked up the pages I had previously
written, I felt an overwhelming sense of urgency to complete what I had
started. I got excited. I started writing and everything seemed to just flow relatively
effortlessly. Whether this book gets published or just bound and given to my
family and friends, I will complete this unfinished project in my life,
honoring my passion of writing and thus honoring my life and Heathers! #finishwhatyoustart
