Reluctant Return

It's been a while.  When I first started this blog, I was worried about who would see it, but now I realize that it doesn't matter who sees it.  As long as I am being true to myself then I will be able to endure any ridicule that might follow as a result of my writing.  With this in mind, I have returned.

Returning to my blog "Discoveries" isn't the only source of the reluctant feeling that I have today.  Today is also the first day that I return to my day job.  Walking through those doors in a few hours is not going to be like all the previous times that I performed that action.  This time I feel different.  Different how you might ask.  Well the only way I can explain it is that I feel more alive.  I feel more like a woman, a woman with a vision, a woman with a heart full of love and appreciation.  The difference also grows from knowing that there are many other beneficial things that are competing for my time, therefore my time in the office is precious and I will strive even harder to make it meaningful.

So I return to work, a bit reluctant to put my son in a room with about 6 other infants and two caring woman for the day.  I return to this blog, a bit reluctant to share my thoughts with the world for fear of who might read it.  While sitting in my favorite room in the house, on a dark rainy morning with my mac in my lap; a feeling of intimate privacy is with me.  I hope this feeling lends itself well to my blog and it's future and not to my demise.

Time to get my 8 week old son ready for his big day!  Here's a picture of him doing what he does best, being cute!
