Anniversary

The wheel of the year has turned a full circle since I launched this blog, so I am once again where I began, though in a wholly different place (and a year older too). 

Mere weeks after my Beginning last April, I started to have doubts. Was I doing the right thing? Who was going to read this anyway? 

As I didn’t want to give up so soon, I decided to set a goal to continue for at least one year; to embrace possibility, rather than limiting myself; to be open to whatever happened, whatever came—good or bad.

Needless to say, it has been a long and difficult twelvemonth, but I have made it! 

I’m not sure that I have quite achieved all the things that I wanted to, as stated in my first post, but I know now that this journey that I am on will be a long one, and even after a whole year, it has still only just begun … and keeps beginning again and again.

I have changed as this place of offerings has grown, and I hope that my second year of blogging will bring even more transformation and growth. I may not be in the best place right now, in terms of my health, but I still feel that exciting happenings are ahead, and that feeling pulls me onwards. 

Thank you to everyone, from all over the world, who has come with me on this creative endeavour, who has read and followed, commented and shared. Without your support—even though most of you are complete strangers—it would have been much harder to continue. I hope that you will stay with me as I go in search of more glorious unknowns.

    1. Thank you, Carmine. The watercolour is a copy of an Alan Lee painting, so not my 'original' work, but it was just right to be my blog header. Many more offerings to come, I hope.
