following a dream... ack!

I decided I'm going to do what I believe God has put on my heart to do. It's amazing how scary it is to follow a dream. I think it's scary because there is so much risk of failure and you don't want to fail at your dream. However, there's no way to do the dream without risking failure.

So... here I go. I'm going to tell you what my dream is. But first, you have to promise to take me seriously, to not doubt me or mock me. You have to promise to love me through tough times when I do fail and when things don't look so good.

You Promise?

Ok. I want to be a writer. I want to write books and articles about real life. About life with God and about the things He's taught me. I want to share these things with other people and I want to do it through writing.

I haven't been writing a lot because I'm afraid of it. Kind of like I didn't get involved in theatre right away in high school because I didn't think I could do it. But, I could and I did. So, I believe that I can and I will do this.

There. You know my dream. Will you please pray for me?

Thanks.
