Tomorrow marks one year since BasilBe, this little blog-ette, came into the world. Really it has been more to me than just a blog - it has (as twee as this might sound) been at my side as I've figured a few things out about myself.
See, when I started opening my heart here, I was pretty lost. (That whole sorry tale is here). No, actually I was clear on what I didn't want, but I wasn't quite sure what to do about the things I did want, love and dream of. In opening up a blank post most days and writing what was bubbling under the surface, maybe even bursting to get out, I began to make sense of my passions and desires, the things that make me light up inside ... and I started to dream of a time when my life would be full of these things. And then I couldn't ignore it....
What was a vague inclination to do something to help people (how vague!), steadily became startling clarity on how I might just do that. First and foremost for me it's my family - this I knew all along. The bit I didn't know was how to pull together my little melting-pot of skills and experience together into something purposeful! (You can see what I've done about this here). And the next step is actually in putting myself out there - watch this space....
So, to my cherished little space, happy birthday .... and a HUGE thank you to those of you have shared this precious time with me
