One point to clear up, though, is that my days of earning an actual living wage from writing are in the distant past. My blog and musings that turn up anywhere else are words that demand something of me and don't promise much in return. I think all life is an act of faith for there really are no guarantees, not about anything. Life at its most wonderful feels like floating, being buoyed and supported, trusting we will not (a) sink or (b) become too lost to be found. Let me add my voice to the millions who have probably said this before - it is the journey. And if you are destined for Western dancing, the clothes will appear. Or show up in your tutu. Mary Chapin Carpenter sings a song I love, "Heroes and Heroines" in which she says (as near as I recall), "heaven bless the ones who keep their bearings strong and certain." You know your truth; it will not let you down. xoxo MarylinnMarylinn Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02759437467691163658noreply@blogger.com
