YES!!!

You know what I love most about journeys? I love when you walk through a journey with someone and you get to watch it become something it didnt start as. For example: The vlog brothers I refrenced in a previous post was initially a new way to be brothers and it slowly morphed into this movements of self proclaimed nerd fighters. When I took the first steps of this journey, it was simply a way for me to write, a chance for me to close my eyes and in small blissful moments, dance with my biggest dreams. There are these rolling hills in my home town. I like to go back and visit and imagine all the people Ive loved and lost waltzing across the hills just waiting for me. Sometimes I dream of waltzing with them. But when I write this blog, I waltz with my dreams; moving them as they move me. You all have been a fantastic group of people who so endlessly support me and sometimes I wonder if you are actually out there reading these until I get a message like I got this last week.

Its from a friend I met here in Little Rock. Someone that has always been there for me when I needed her. In this message she sent me, it was written to more then just me and it starts like this "I was inspired recently by a friend to start a list of things I wanted to do. So, I have done that and it has also inspired me to write a blog to go along with it. The things on the list may not seem huge or life changing but they are things that I have thought about doing and want to do. The List will change and grow as I do." When I read this, I could not sit still. This to me is pure victory.

This is waking up in the morning and taking a deep breath of air, knowing that today I am alive and today is the first day of the new life that I will live; free and vibrant. I am a woman that runs with wolves and I am picking up other women to run with me. I never meant to start a movement of lists and goals and journeys. I didnt intend anything beyond my own selfish needs, but I am blessed with people in my life that, rather then beat down a fire, choose to dance around it.

This blog is scattered. Today is my first day off any soda of any kind and let me tell you, im hurting. But I wanted you, my minions to know about this blog that she writes. Her name for the sake of  this blog will be Miss Mcgee. And her journey is here: http://lulu1983.wordpress.com/

My list for now is only three things, she has many more and I fully intend to help her get to the end of it. Maybe, in the process our sisterhood of waltzing with our dreams will grow and perhaps people will find their lives better because of what we are doing, believing or accomplishing.

Do you have a list? If you were to make one, what would it be?

As for my list, I am now officially three months from my promotion as long as I keep doing this well or better. I start my jogging this week for that marathon. Every day I write is one day better then I have ever done before. So heres to tomorrow and the adventures, lists and journeys it brings with it.
