March 8, 2011, 2nd Post

Okay, just getting the hang of this. I noticed the date today is 20 years exactly from my baby's "due date." He was born a few days later than the doctor predicted, and I was so very happy when he was born!

Well, my baby is turning twenty in a few days, and Mama is starting an important new phase in her life! I feel a creative urge growing inside me, after much labor pain getting to this point, and something wonderful is on it's way! I am continually pleasantly surprized by what I call "The Tenacity of Life! (I like to spell Surprize with a Z, it's my blog!)

For example, a cactus flower blossoming  from an impossible crack in the wall of a tall, tall cliff. Leaving one to wonder, How in the world did that ever grow there? These things give me HOPE.

March 2011

Aha! I finally started my very first blog! I was up all night reading the Honey Rock Dawn blog entries for the past year and noticed a place where I could start my own. So I did! Here it is! Just getting started is a huge step. I am a writer, and way behind the times as technology can hardy keep up with itself anymore.

I am absolutely amazed at the power of the internet for sharing real information, as in, untainted by "commercialism." Just look at what is happening now as the wildfire of democracy is spreading in Tunisia, Egypt, and hopefully so on...until Tibet is free from China! That will be a great day! Will the meek inherit the earth?

I get most of my news from the internet. I often listen to the hourly headines for a few minutes on a local radio station, then find and follow the stories I am interested in on the world wide web, which often leads to information I don't think one would see on television. The point is, I try to choose what I watch and not have it spoon fed to me like a sedated, sleep-deprived videot. I like to binge on dvds occasionally on my pc. I just know if I had a TV set in my home, I would waste even more time than I already do! I have been looking forward to starting a blog, and have lots to share, but for now, I am just going to take it for a little tesat drive and check back in later! Thanks for looking and come back soon!
