I fully agree with everything you say...Annaclaire,<br /><br />I fully agree with everything you say in your comment. The struggle for me was that I felt like I didn't have all of myself. I spent years and years of my life around my characters, developing them every day. When grad school and work started chewing through all of my time, I felt like that part of me had been lost. The great part about Smoke and Rain for me is that it breaks the process down into manageable chunks. Life is about moments, I couldn't agree with you more, but I've been living a life defined by hours to this point and am only beginning to appreciate the glances, smiles, and tears of my life.<br /><br />BBS,<br /><br />Thank you so much. It's really been rewarding for me so far. To be honest, I'm really looking forward to getting the next Sunday Stories out! Thank you so much for the encouragement, and I will keep going! I'm a week into the process and still as motivated, if not more so. I hope you keep writing as well, because I really enjoy what you are working on as well. Thanks again!Smoke and Rainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12858386559814526541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6672814169305546493.post-70623302709440323472011-10-19T08:07:38.182-05:002011-10-19T08:07:38.182-05:00I really love how you are writing for youself, jus...I really love how you are writing for youself, just to see where the words take you.

Be confident in who you are and have trust in the people around you (in whatever capacity), and you will never be lonely in your heart. <br />Time for me isn't minutes or hours. It's moments. A glance, a smile, a tear. It's when the world stops and you feel the breath pass your lips. When minutes are scarce, make the moments count and you will no longer try to look for minutes lost.annaclairenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6672814169305546493.post-84728458773792980442011-10-18T22:14:54.395-05:002011-10-18T22:14:54.395-05:00Talk about unexpected surprises.

Unfortunately that was the style that I was used to and I am trying to switch, which is as difficult as it sounds. I'm having a great time with my controlled introspection, and learning slowly what it is that matters. Thanks for the encouragement!Smoke and Rainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12858386559814526541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6672814169305546493.post-66787797202618409932011-10-18T19:34:27.044-05:002011-10-18T19:34:27.044-05:00As my very wise best friend says: Time isn't s...As my very wise best friend says: Time isn't something you have; it's something you make. It's fantastic that your parents are equally wise. Have fun exploring your own depths and making time for what matters!CMM05https://www.blogger.com/profile/09347067952553307707noreply@blogger.com
