31 Days of Story {Day 13} Importance in the Telling

Almost halfway through these 31 days of Story and I wonder why I started this journey in the first place.



Why do I NEED to write these words, to share this pilgrimage here...now??

I don't know really.
Really.
And
Truly.

I just know that somewhere deep in my soul, this is important.
Even though this October is busier than the past few months combined,
Still I must write these words and share this with you.

Somehow it is necessary.
It needs to come forth.
Even if it is just to change me.

But I do hope it will
Challenge
Comfort
Encourage
Spur you on too

To share your own stories
Or at the very least to live them beautifully.
Even if the story is different than your teenage eyes thought they would be
Live it out anyway.
Squeeze life out of your every moment.
Discover the beauty in your childhood lessons.
Know that you are not alone.
Open the door to THIS season.
Believe that the Master Planner is guiding your footsteps, loving your heart, holding your hand, seeing you through every storm.


And then...
Stand back...
Look at the tapestry that is YOU.
Exquisite, isn't it?
More than you could ever imagine

This 31 day odyssey is mine.
Thank you for continuing on with me....

This week, stories on leaving Haiti, first boyfriends, college days...and more...
Join me?
