At least for me, nothing says catharsis, nothing promises renewal more than ocean waves breaking on the shore. In the middle of my sixth decade on this earth I find myself caught between my hopes for the future and the damnation of my recent past. If ever anyone needed a cathartic renewal, I most certainly do now. So I am starting, finally I might add, on the journey to restoring myself and restoring my soul. I am determined to forge ahead, to make a clean break from the mistakes I have made in the past and to believe, completely and without question, that Second Acts occur in real life and not just in the movies.
In order not to lose sight of my dream I have decided to record my journey here in this blog. Anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation is invited to join, to contribute and to share their experiences, revelations, thoughts and progress. I realize there is most likely no right or wrong way to begin such an extraordinary venture but the only thing worse than doing the wrong thing is doing nothing at all. So I'm going to get started....
My belated comment to this initial post and start of this blog is because I came upon it for the first time just now! Due to my recovery process from recent eye surgery I am not seeing all as I should.
ReplyDeleteBut I wanted to comment lest it is thought I ignored it...I am taking inspiration from my brother as I too am on my own journey into my second act. Kindred spirits all the way...here we go!! let the next act be even sweeter than the first, and an adventure that leads us full circle plus some!!!
