So Long For Now!

Well I started this blog in May and I have enjoyed writing each day. It probably has served to open me up to many of the ideas that are now in need of more attention from me. And, because I don't like to give less than my all, I would rather end this on my own terms.

I do hope to come back to this daily writing at some point, but right now there are just too many other to-dos on the list that cannot wait. It has been fun. Writing, for me, has always been cathartic. It enables me to end some of the conversations that are constantly going on in my head and give some sort of structure to them. Even if you don't publish what you write, I think it is good to put pen to paper as much as time permits. Just imagine what you or I will think about the things we've written here and now. It is fun and scary at the same time. But the single point of life is to move forward on your journey. When people say sacrastically to me, "Well you're not the Taisha I knew," I think to myself, "Good, I certainly hope not!" The thing is, most people are afraid of change. Most people don't want to step out of their comfort zone or heck even off of their block. They don't realize how much clinging to what it is they think they have stifles them. But I intend to be different. I suppose, in many ways, I am already different. That is what life is all about for me. I intend to get the best from life rather than allow it to get the best of me. Change is good. Embrace it in others and in yourself. So, for now, there are two quotes that I will leave you with and wish you the very best.

It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power.
