some small. some not so much.
first up, I am changing the focus of this blog
to tell my story.
your what?
my story.
the leader on our trip to El Salvador
is a very inspirational individual who spoke
in detail about human stories and
encouraged us to think about
what do we want our stories to say about us?
if a story was written about your life today,
would anyone go see it in a movie theater?
or take the time to read the book?
is there any depth?
any chapters on courage, stepping out on the ledge, helping others?
what do you want your "story" to be
when you are gone from this earth.
I am going to spend the next year
working on my storyboard,
creating an outline draft
of what I want my story to say.
this blog has always been primarily a
happy go lucky place where
I tried to keep things light
and not get into anything too deep or sad but
to be honest it really is not
meeting the requirements of "operation be authentic".
my story needs to be authentic
so if this is the space that I am going to
document my adventures then
it needs to have the good, the bad and the not so pretty.
I still think there will be a picture a day
and What's for Dinners and all that other fun stuff
but also an emphasis on trying to find my place in
this world.
I have pictures (and lots of them!)
for the 365 project and I will get
caught up over the next few days.
** my other blog (where did I put that soapbox) is being deleted today.
