dear readers, fans, and followers~
As we all know, unfortunately sometimes things aren’t so awesome. Somehow we have to keep trucking.
I’d be lying if I said it hasn’t been a huge challenge keeping BLR rolling 24/7 these past 3-plus years, because it has. I’m not a trust-fund kid, I don’t make money from this, and it’s quite a finagle-fest to be a nomad and maintain a job that actually brings cash in, so I can live the life I want to live and pay my bills too. It’s all good, all worth it, and I’m not going to stop doing whatever I have to. But? As I get some sleep, play catch up, and work on a planned big ol’ shift for things here, you might find my daily posts a bit sporadic over these next few weeks as I make some changes behind the scenes.
Just as I had written the above to post a couple days ago, I found out some beyond heartbreaking and tragic news about a very good friend. The kind that makes you gasp for air, your knees buckle, and feel like you are going to lose your lunch all at the same time. The kind that I haven’t felt for 17 years, and the kind that I will never forget.
A freight train of perspective once again.
What really matters? People, time, and doing what you love. What else? Nothing.
So, as I feel like I might be behind on everything, when I’m tired, and have those Grrr! Days;Â Are things ever going to be easy, just flow, and what the heck am I doing this all for anyway?! –Â That perspective flies in and I know I’m doing exactly what I’m meant to do. I’m also reminded that my bad days are nowhere near the nightmare of what some others are living through right now.
Life is way too short. If there’s something you really want to do, start doing it. Please. Follow your heart, your gut, and do what you want, then encourage and support someone else to do the same.
See you all back here soon…
