giving myself permission to write, to express, to share...
giving in to the urgency i feel to connect with the world...
to be transparent
to expose who i am...what motivates me and what brings me joy
to break all the journalism rules that i was taught in college and write freely without worry
with the hopes that i may touch one person...make one person's life better...transform one relationship from ordinary to extraordinary on one day...in one life...one relationship
that i can laugh with all the friends who have teased me for being a hopeless romantic for the past few decades and show them that it's the little things that make the biggest difference
this all started in professor ryan's journalism class when we were asked to create a mock-up of a magazine...complete with the name, headlines, sample articles - you get the drift. being the romantic that i was (yes, i still am) i wanted to follow my passion and create a magazine about relationships and romance and LOVE! i titled my magazine b.l.i.s.s. - with the acronym standing for belieiving love is something special.
here i am several decades past that fateful creation (which i do still have) feeling that burning desire to hatch that little egg in some way, shape or form. so here it is...in all its' infancy ready to share with the world with a few tweaks and much greater resolve about what it means to love...to live and to strive to live a life less ordinary with the belief that life is something special...bliss
my heart is still open...and i desire to make the lives of those around me better...and i don't claim to be an expert...just someone still wildly interested in love, loving, relationships and i will try to tell you everything i know with the hopes that i can learn from you
