Here.
Wow. Eight months have passed just like that. I was literally laying in bed this morning watching Youtube videos as I usually do when I need some lazy time. I had this overwhelming urge to grab my computer and log into my site. So I pulled myself up and made the bed. Traveled to the living room, lit a candle and plopped on the couch with my computer in my hand. Now I am here.
I’m not sure if I anything to say at all or a whole lot to say but I know that I have missed being here. I miss interacting with the few loyal readers. I miss the excitement that I get from scheduling my posts to publish. I miss having people relate to my life situations. Most of all I miss the release of creating something that is mine and that serves as therapy to me. I am here.
I have wanted to start back posting for a while now but isn’t that how life works? We want to do this and that and somehow we manage to get around to everything but the one or two things that we really need for ourselves more than anything else. Well this is me, getting back to one of the things that I need. By doing that, I may just help you get back around to your thing that is for you. I am here.
I usually don’t sit and write raw and unedited posts. I typically set an intention or something specific I want to talk about. Writing and editing my posts usually happens over a weeks time and I hardly ever write and post same day. I needed this today however. To just get up and start again. Just let my brain send my fingers across the keyboard without having to really think about it. Not wanting it to be perfect. Just wanting my heart to speak. I am here.
With that ramble over. I think its time that I reintroduce myself back into this safe space that I created for myself two years ago. I’m rusty and have to figure my way around. I think I need this right now more than I needed it two years ago. So in the words of Eric B. and Rakim, “it’s been a long time, I shouldn’t have left you” but I am here now.

This post sounds like my journals when I finally get back to writing. I know it helps, and I get into a rhythm, then life happens and I fall off. But I always come back to myself (journaling). Welcome back!

Miss Patience, my heart skipped a beat when I saw your name pop up in my mobile device this morning. Even further, I saw 8 months, and I said, “Is this why she’s been absent, she’s pregnant?” LOL. But basically, you took an 8 month hiatus, but you are here now. Welcome back!! I loved the free flow of thoughts, by the way. Perhaps that is what you should do so as not to get stuck – Let It Flow!! I really did feel as though I was on a journey. Although there wasn’t an intentional destination, that made it more intriguing. Then the magic happened – it was all about merely being present in the moment. I needed that! Thanks and keep it up.

😂😂 this really made me chuckle! No pregnancy news but I have arrived back here. It was nice to Let go and let flow! Thank you for the continued support. I definitely think I will do more of the free flow style of writing more often and see where it takes me! Think it will help getting over the feeling of needing things to be just so in order to share.
