How many times have we told this lie to others?

Getting closer to what I promised years ago was soon to come.

Day by day.

Dear readers, there is no turning back now.

Don’t quit can’t just be a slogan.

Do it better than or differently than everyone else can’t just be a slogan.

Make a promise to keep it, to not quit – on living up to our word (like most of us do).

Do what you say you’re gonna do.

That’s the point.

Do what you say you’re gonna do…

Good night.

Note to self: Remember, you never (started out) trying to do anything more than break through the pain of wishful thinking. To begin writing in a more consistent manner. To leave a trial for a young boy (your Son).

Dear Son, how has any of this been possible? Closing in on Mid Life Celebrations’s four year anniversary. That crazy 100-day promise to leave a trail for you.. remember?

Son, see how far someone can go when they decide to keep going, to not quit.

And see how a crazy idea begins to grow and bloom over time when it is nurtured and believed in?
