"Asking is the beginning of receiving. Make sure you don't go to the ocean with a teaspoon. At least take a bucket so the kids won't laugh at you."-Jim Rohn
It's time now to stop and ask for some direction. By all means, if you have answers or suggestions, please let me know, but I will, at least, put this out there and anticipate that the universe will respond. For all these years that I have intended to write, (nigh on 35 years) there was really nothing more than a compilation of vague notions floating about like jellyfish, taking their direction from the winds and the currents. Attempts to hone any one thought or idea felt futile and overwhelming. But, in the past 6 months, three very concrete, exciting, and fertile prospects have presented themselves. I am thrilled with each opportunity, but find myself not so much torn, as divided. Therein lies the question: Am I to choose one task and pursue it with every bit of my focus and energy, or, is it possible to devote time to each, and wait for one to emerge as the obvious design? I am content with this dilemma, and I eagerly await 'a new dawn, a new day, a new life for me, -and I'm feeling good.'* In the meantime, I will write and pray. And, I am certain when my pen hits the paper, it will be guided by the hand of God.
*Taken from the song, "Feeling Good"
