New beginnings
can be thrilling… and terrifying. At the risk of jinxing myself (again), I’m getting all excited because I
will have the chance to do (or
try to do *cough*) many of the things I love doing (in about 9 weeks).
I’ve been here before. And then my flesh and bones (or circumstances) have betrayed me. It’s hard not be anxious about reclaiming some of what illness and other demons have kept from me. When the apprehension grows too wild, I remind myself that I’ve had a lot of time to plan and plot and such… So, it might not be too bad.
And that
final thought, my dear poets and storytellers, is the motivation behind today’s
optional prompt… in which I invite you to find inspiration in the following
words: “Don’t be afraid to start over again.
This time, you’re not starting from scratch, you’re starting from experience.” ~ Unknown
