Late Beginnings

As with many fads that have happened along in my lifetime, I feel I am arriving late to this one. People are already doing video blogs and podcasts, and here I am with my very first blog.

But Here I Am!

Why a blog? Well…

I feel the need to create something, and at the moment, the list of things I am currently creating is extremely short.

I love words. I love that there are so many different ways to express a thought or concept, and each variation can have an ever-so-slightly different meaning. I love that you can explain, express, expound, illustrate. You can describe, define, disclose, interpret. You can translate, paraphrase, clarify, illuminate. All are remarkably similar, but also subtly different. I love searching for just the right word. I love stringing words together to tell a story, trade ideas, have a conversation, sing a song.

My sister, well, one of them, (not the photographer who took the cover photo) suggested I start a blog. My sister is perceptive and smart; I have chosen to heed her advise.

I think I am hoping to find something here. Honestly, I am not sure what that is. It might be many somethings. It might be as simple as finding a means of expression, or as intangible as finding hope. That would be nice, Stephen King says that hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things.

So, welcome to my corner. Sit down and make yourself at home. Fasten in, it might be a bumpy ride.

Cheers,

Kat
