Like the caterpillar, never saw the miracle coming

Yesterday, because of my friend’s recovery from surgery (she’s staying with us), we didn’t go to Church nor did we go to Chapin’s YuGiOh tournament.

i also didn’t drive to the airport to fly to France.

Unexpectedly spent much more time on my Facebook Mid Life Celebration page than normal.

Being decently organized allowed for a crushed dream to morph into a huge blessing.

It was in my spontaneous responses to friends expressing their condolences that i became a stronger, wiser, happier person.

Like the caterpillar, never saw the miracle coming.

Which is typical while trying to meet or exceed the ~~numbers~~ goals.

Is profit the goal or the reward?

Infinite wisdom:

I would have loved to have written you a shorter letter but did not have the time.

The paradox of being an author – saying a lot without writing a lot.

PS. Sent an email to the publisher last night (a Sunday) green lighting the whole project: manuscript, front/back covers, spin, copyright page.

This is a big deal and one that fear is shouting, are you sure you want to do this?

Don’t give up (ever) (ever, ever).

No, seriously.

Sounds elementary, and yet it’s life’s absolute biggest challenge.

Knowing the enemy’s face works in our favor.
