So true, Elaine! If revealing your true self was easy, everyone would do it. But working through the fear and showing your true colors offers unimaginable rewards, and it’s part of my life’s mission to encourage people to do just that. As I always say, “We need what you’ve got!” 🙂

Showing up and being prepared to reveal who you are and what you believe. This is especially hard if you know family and friends do not share some of your basic beliefs which may or may not be apparent in your writing.

Yeah, it really saddens me that she got rid of those pages. I’d give anything to have them now, especially since she’s no longer with me. The digital age has its frustrations, but I am definitely grateful for the ability to save (or recover) just about anything! 🙂

I try to save all of my writing, even stuff I don’t think I’ll ever use again. But of course it’s a lot easier these days to save stuff digitally… or to pull something back out of the trash can!
