To Write or Not to Write?

What kind of silly idea is that to ask one who writes?  Writing is more than a hobby or lifestyle - to write is to exist, to breathe, to make a difference. A writer writes to inform and educate; to inspire and to entertain; to be heard above the noisy, chatter of uninformed people.

I write because of the pure pleasure and sound of the words as they flow from dreams. I write what I experience and feel, the words and actions of others that hurt my heart like falling on a rock. The spoken word can never be taken back. The written word is ageless and indelible as ink on parchment.

To write or not to write - that is not what a writer asks. We just write!

Our Trip to Italy

Back to winter - inside time to write!

I returned home after a six day visit with my daughter and grandchildren in PA and OH. We celebrated our great-grandson's 8th birthday with the grandma's, grandpa's, aunts and uncles for two days. I learned a few new things about him - he can dance like a pro and score strikes as he bowls!

Now it's time to continue writing book two - as the inspiration was everywhere but not the quiet times to write down those great ideas!

Sharing time and fun with family was a big priority as I don't see them all in one place more than once a year - twice in a good year!

The real story

        

Was it our decision or was it our destiny to find each other again?  Happy anniversary my love.
