Choosing Joy-Blogging

I have been reading blogs for quite a while. I never really thought about starting one myself. My biggest fears..What would I say or write about? What if it sounds dumb or stupid. Thinking about writing a blog was right up there with the 1000 word essay on "what I did for the summer" in English class, that I dreaded.
I never would have thought that blogging would bring joy. Because of Sherry's blog, I have really found it to be fun. She has showed me how you can just take a few minutes and think about a topic and make it interesting. Blogging has given me a time to make my mind think or express what I think, in a different way. It is a time I get to spend by myself and enjoy re-finding something new about me.
I was really beginning to forget who I was and what I was about. If you asked me what I found joy in, my joy was existed through someone else. My world has been so busy trying to fix everybody's problems, I forgot about mine. Now I am really looking in another direction and starting to see joy through my world. It's been great. I am re-discovering who I am and what I like.
Now, I am not only looking for joy on a daily basis, I am looking for Red things. I see red things! Everywhere! (Where have I heard that one? Mmm.) I have a camera and would love to share some of the things I have found, but I have no way of downloading the pictures, yet. The cord is missing. But I have the world wide web, so I will recreate my pictures.
Thanks Sherry, for helping me keep it real. I really appreciate you..and your blog.
If you ever get the chance, jump over to Sherry's blog. It will make you smile.
