Learning to Walk- A First Step

Learning to walk is a huge milestone in life.  It opens the door to independence, exploration, responsibility.   I learned to physically walk many years ago, but continued growth as a person involves these very concepts, and more.  Each time life tests me,  I am learning to walk all over again.  Love, family, career, interests, health, friends, relationships, and in all of the intricacies of a person’s life there is something new to be learned and in learning, a person grows, gaining insight.  It’s every bit as exciting as when a child learns to finally coordinate brain and body in order to walk!  It may be wobbly at first but the more practice one has, the better one becomes.  Oooofff and a lot of life has happened since I was last here.

Im (still) all about learning and life and growth.  I (still) want to find myself to be a better, much improved person with every  passing day, each new experience.  I believe many people do as well, except they don’t verbalize it or maybe they don’t consciously pursue it, with the rush of daily life swirling about them.

Ive always enjoyed writing, yet never had formal training beyond what was required of me in school.  Now, in the age of blogs anyone, and I mean ANYONE can write, and so here I go – from paper and pen to keyboard.  First post- again… well sort of…! {REVISED April 2022}

  1. this is great, Mel! I have always wanted to start a blog, too. But I don’t think anyone would read it, HAHA!! I can’t wait to read more of yours.

    1. Beth, I’m not sure anyone will read it but I’ve wanted to do it for a long time and it’s more to hone my writing skills and keep accounts of things that are going on right now. It could turn into more…
      You write really well and could easily have a blog with readers!
