Oh yes, this is intimidating!
My first blog will set the tone for future masterpieces (I hope.) My mother didn't start writing seriously until she was my age and I can see why. I always have a lot of ideas in my head and a desire to write them for all the world to read. But a blog? The pressure is building...
Ah well, lets take another leaf out of Mum's notebook and just do it! Here's what motivated me:
Life is a series of collisions with the future; it is not the sum of what we have been, but what we yearn to be.
Jose Ortega y Gasset
Every month I have space for an editorial in my magazine. It started as a page, but as the magazine grew and matured my editorial space often disappears to a 1/4 page or less. I plan that this blog gives me the opportunity to express myself: To tell the world what I really want to say, unconstrained by the magazine. It will be a more accurate reflection of my values and beliefs. I guess my readers will be the judge.
