My mind is full of scattered half thought-out creative pursuits, but there are just two things that have never gotten lost in the mix. Writing is one of them (the other is music). Regardless of any new interests I’ve picked up over the years, gathering my thoughts and turning them into verbal creations has always been at the forefront. And it’s especially gratifying when I’m on the subject of travel.
In July, I was preparing for the trip to South America and felt like it would be a good time to launch a personal blog. I didn’t know where the blog would lead, but I knew that I wanted it to relate to other travelers, take others with me on my journeys, and inspire people to have their own adventures.
At times it felt purposeless, like the words I put together floated off into the air, popped, and disappeared like a child’s bubbles. But as time and blog entries go by, I increasingly feel like my words are heard (or should I say read?), even if they only invoke a simple, “I know what you mean.”
I’ve had a wonderful time cultivating this blog over the last six months. Now I am taking it to a new spot where it will hopefully have more room to grow. I will post the link to my new blog shortly after the New Year. The target date is January 2, 2010. Stay tuned!
