Thank you so much for sharing! I have only...Holly, <br />Thank you so much for sharing! I have only just begun this journey of learning to be who I am, and this resonated with me: "crazed and mystical, inspired and ordinary, loved and hated." I feel rather crazed and mystical myself, though truly I am the simple, ordinary "Just Me" girl. Listing of roles is a bit overwhelming at times, so let me just say I have the privilege of caring for 3 'specially wrapped gifts'- my husband and two sons who deal with a myriad of medical issues including type one diabetes, SPD, and PTSD (among others). So writing is what frees... as words pour out, I experience what it is to be loosed, to soar free. This is how I connect with the Wildness of God and the beauty of his created word. This is art, and I pray you will embrace 'your own kind of words', and that learn to grow into mine, as well. I think it's time to leap!Rebekah Benimoffnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245131160534112763.post-49438006762130002322012-10-06T09:32:21.166-05:002012-10-06T09:32:21.166-05:00"Because it is truth."

It kind of helped me shape my FB identity in a more fuller way. Does that make sense? I wasn't satisfied to let my status updates be the only thing that shaped me in that space so, one day, I just threw it out there. I still get nervous somedays, but I think that is a good thing.Hollynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245131160534112763.post-78260666476367445692012-10-04T11:34:04.066-05:002012-10-04T11:34:04.066-05:00Good words to mull about this morning as I've ...Good words to mull about this morning as I've been thinking about this very thing, but from a slightly different perspective. I believe my words are genuine, but perhaps I am being disingenuous by hiding them from some people? I share my blog via twitter, but not on facebook. And it's a sort of self-protection, but do I do my harm that way? <br /><br /><br />Thank you for sharing your beautiful words with us.Brenna Dhttp://twitter.com/chicagomamanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245131160534112763.post-46262487818089211662012-10-04T09:59:51.701-05:002012-10-04T09:59:51.701-05:00Dear Kit,

This speaks to me, Holly.<br />And I think we all have a deep desire and need to be known. I find my mind filled with so many things I want to put down on paper (screen?) but wondering who it is for. This move to TX has changed my audience and made me unsure of what I can say or not say. But I feel like you, "I have to keep telling".<br />Thanks for this, Holly.
