I will come here often1 to add my latest ideas, and see if my story can take shape.A bit like my notebook, but I welcome comments.

I may add the odd rambling diary entry about something I have seen and/or heard. I tend to go a bit George Mikes and/or P G Wodehouse at these times so take everything I write about "life" with a pinch af whimsical salt!

Also here you will find rants erm, essays inspired by prompts or just things that come floating to the top of my mind. It's a very mixed bag, but I hope you will find something to enjoy.

Outasync good luck on your goal of submission by the end of the year. It's always tough to prioritize and I respect your decision to move onto something more beneficial to your goals. I would be happy to offer my thoughst on your work if you need another opinion (albeit a very novice one). I wish you the best .

Youre also articulate. And very good at doing long blog posts ;)

LOL I love this. But it is so funny. I mean, have you seen Steven Colbert every time they release a new I anything? I pad, I phone, I pod.... LOL Hes older than I am and Im 39... I was like a school girl with the giggles when the Wii came out. I am smart enough to wait a year before buying anything as that the price has usually dropped by then. :)

Hi Outasync
Faith is a strength.. A Priest told me a story about an elderly lady he visited in the hospital. She was very old and felt she was ready to pass over to her reward.
The Priest knew she was in pretty good shape and the Dr. had just told him the lady was nearly ready to go home. The lady insisted she would be happier to just die.She said, What can I do? I can't work, I can't go anywhere with out help, I can't take care of myself, I can't do anything, What can I do? The Priest said to her...You can Pray. From that day forward the Priest visited the lady weekly and gave her the names of people who needed her prayers. The lady helped many people over the many more years she lived. If you are strong in your faith, then YOU have Strength.

I totally agree with all you said here. I especially like the part about no greys only grubby whites. ;)

I enjoyed this. Very well expressed. Only one thing I disagree with: I'd rather pick up a handful of spiders than have a dog even enter my field of vision!

I also try to accomplish more than is reasonable or even possible. It 's rooted in my tendency to value myself solely on what I do.
I've even through clinical depression back on 1989 and was fully recovered by 1992. It's unfortunate but true that society judges harshly those who are not "productive" and even more harshly those who are either obses or who suffer from mental illness.
Believing in God was a start for me but what I needed even more was to believe He loved me unconditionally and that He grieved over my suffering.

Oh my gosh, no offense taken. Believe me, I hate those questions, too, which is why they make an excellent prompt. I mentioned that these are typical interview questions in my entry today also.

Anyway, try not to beat yourself up too much, OK? Just being here (WDC) is a step in the right direction. Writing is a great way to deal with our feelings and emotions.

Hang in there!

Looks like you're trying to revive your blog, also! I'm not in the challenge but I'm trying to post regularly again, and thought I'd start blog hopping again to see what others are doing.

Good for you for pushing! I wish you best of luck with your challenges!

Love your perspective. I hardly think of fear as a good thing
