Five years ago this month I felt that God was asking me to share my most vulnerable and personal journal entries online. Did I want to do it? No, but I knew I needed to. I expected to write for a month or two until I no longer felt called to share. I never anticipated that 5 years later I would still be writing and posting. I never anticipated that I would have written or been interviewed on more than 20 additional posts through other organizations.
It is more than my story or Ginny’s story or our family’s story. This is me bearing witness to life and death and love and sorrow and hope and God. This is me painfully learning truths and unlearning lies and passing it all along for others to take or leave. Amazing things happen when we share our experiences – we feel less alone – we make others feel less alone – we broaden awareness – we reduce stigmas – we connect – we share life. I’m forever grateful for the connections I’ve made through Be-Still-and-Know, and I am excited to continue writing and sharing on this platform! Thanks for being here!
