My challenge is this... I love writing. But somehow, blogging... I fall short many, many times. Now don't get me wrong, I keep trying it just because I think it's nice to have a place where you can come and write random things.

But maybe that's the problem... most blogs are about SOMETHING. Mine seems to just be about life in general. My life even. And who really wants to read about that?

Also... I never really think anyone is looking. Yesterday for instance, I know there were 12 pageviews to my blog. And I'm thinking... from WHO?? Why?? Which is the totally wrong response... right?Especially considering that 12 pageviews are nothing. But there you have it.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have people coming on here, reading stuff, being hopefully inspired by something I wrote... But how do you streamline that information?

Right now, I'm just blabbing, writing whatever comes to me. Freewriting. I usually get to the point even when I don't think I have one. And here I think is something worth saying today... contrary to what we've been taught, sometimes the best things in life are the ones that just come to us... when we're not looking. When we're going about our day, singing along, just being exactly who we are. Without the pressures of what we should be 'doing', who we should be 'being'... When we're just ourselves... Enjoying the ride. I think... the best things come to us then.

So maybe my blogs are a little like that. Random. Free. Nothing special or direct or pointed. No defined results necessary. Just floating along... taking the ride with life to see what it has in store.

Imagine if everyday was an adventure. And you knew fabulous things would happen. You just didn't know what or how. I know there is something to be said for stability... but stability doesn't have to be predictability. Stability can be fun, spontaneous. Stability can be found in our adventure. That place where we know, no matter what waits around that fabulous corner... it will be working out for me. All of it. It's all fabulous... Having that firm knowledge that takes away the fear of the unknown... helps us tackle the unknown with gusto and a pep in our step. And when we do that... the unknown opens up like magic before us.

Told you I could be random... Here was another random entry. So... Have a super random day!!
