I have been having a problem. Writer's block. For those of you who have knowledge of my love for all things written, you realize the depth of that statement. Today I would like to say that I wrote a poem. I'm not sure my block is completely lifted, but I am at least able to write something again. This is a relief.
I would like to blame falling in love for my writers block, and have (as some of you know). Falling in love with God again (um, well and of course, with John) has been kind of a revealing journey. But the truth is I don't know what the cause of my writer's block really is. I think I just need to write differently now than I ever have and that is taking some adjustment.
My hope is that adjustment will be swift and I will write great things. But more than anything, I want to enjoy writing again so I plan not to force it or make it anything it isn't supposed to be. I'm going to write and it is going to be good.
This is what I've always wanted to do.
Back in college, in 2004 when blogging was hardly even a thing yet, I was here. Blogging before blogging meant anything to anyone. You can look in the archives for my past writings, but it was much more like a journal in the past. When we started fundraising, I messed around with the idea of launching something new for this new phase of our journey but actually hated that idea. I am a sum of all of my life and so much of it is here already. So I'm keeping it here. At least for now.
My main focus these days is blogging about our newest journey into the bizarre and wonderful world of gestational surrogacy. Posts dated 2013 and forward will trend heavily toward that journey. I don't promise everything I write will be about though. There might be other things that sneak in occasionally.
Please come along our journey with us. As the saying goes, "The more, the merrier!"
